Domain of One’s Own offers flexible, at-scale cPanel web hosting for institutions, educators, and students around the world. 

What is DoOO?

Domain of One’s Own (DoOO) provides at-scale cPanel web hosting that can be customized and administered for students, faculty, and staff. End users login quickly with their campus credentials and can be up and running with a domain of their choosing in a matter of seconds.

Domain of One’s Own includes access to over 100 open source applications like WordPress and Omeka, as well as key functions for managing a digital presence like DNS, Databases, and File/PHP Managers.

Features and pricing

Get in touch with us for a tailored quote. DoOO begins at $8400/year per 500 accounts – think of it as $1.40/user per month. We also offer multi-year agreements to help you plan ahead. 

As your project scales, our infrastructure increases in groups of 500 users. If you opt to give apex domains to each user, there would be a $15/year cost for each domain name. Project subdomains are completely free.

Getting started​

Depending on your preference, you may choose to have all users sign up with a subdomain of a larger project URL, like student.stateu.edu. End users can also be assigned domains based on unique identifiers, like firstlast.stateu.domains. Alternatively, you may opt to have your institution fund registered apex domains for everyone, like userdomain.org.

No matter what signup option you prefer, users can always connect a previously registered apex domain to their account at a later point.
