  2. Copy the page text into a document.
  3. Save each image from the published pages, or keep the original files you uploaded.
  4. Save any linked documents and note the forms you will need to rebuild.

Move a domain you bought from SITE123

You can keep SITE123’s domain management and point the domain at yaya. For .co.uk domains, SITE123’s connection guide names the registrar tag PDR-IN (PublicDomainRegistry).

  1. Copy the DNS values shown in yaya’s domain connection screen.
  2. Log in to SITE123 and open your user profile in the account dashboard.
  3. Open your domain’s DNS settings.
  4. Update the website’s A and CNAME records to the values yaya gives you. Keep the records used by your email provider.
  5. If you prefer to move domain management too, ask SITE123 support to unlock the domain and provide the transfer code or, for .co.uk, change the registrar tag. Follow your new registrar’s transfer instructions.

Then connect the domain to your yaya site. It connects free at every tier. Source: Connection your domain to an external service. Read 2026-10-14.

Common questions

What does yaya read from my SITE123 website?

yaya reads the public page at the address you paste. It drafts your business description from the business name, the page description, the first paragraphs and any phone or email it finds. When yaya builds your site, it tries to copy up to 8 photos from the page, takes an accent color from it, and keeps a font when the page names one yaya offers. If yaya cannot read the page, nothing is copied. You edit everything before you publish.

Will my SITE123 website go offline?

No. yaya does not touch your SITE123 account. Your current site stays live until you point your domain at yaya.

Can I keep my domain?

Yes. Every site gets a free address on yayasite.com, and your own domain connects free at every tier.

What does yaya do after I publish?

yaya keeps working: SEO and GEO content, posts, review asks and follow-ups. Anything that costs money or reaches a customer waits for your approval.
