# Custom domains

TIP

Custom domains requires a PRO account.

You can use custom domains to stop ad-blockers from preventing Cabin Analytics.

Ad-blockers don't just block ads, they also block analytics services. Even though we don't use cookies or track individual users, ad-blockers could see Cabin just like any other analytics service and block the withcabin.com domain. To prevent this, you can use your own custom subdomain, and point the tracking code to that.

  1. Update your DNS: Add a CNAME e.g. cabin.yourdomain.com pointing to custom.withcabin.com..

    TIP

    Your subdomain name can be anything, but try not to use words like analytics, tracker, stats or collect as these may be blocked by aggressive ad-blockers.

    TIP

    If you use Cloudflare, please turn off the Proxy for this record.

  2. Enter your custom subdomain in the domain settings on withcabin.com and click Validate. Cabin will check your DNS and issue a free SSL certificate for end-to-end encryption.

  3. Update custom tracking code on your website.
