# Setting a custom subdirectory

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature is available on the [Ultimate site plan](https://www.gitbook.com/pricing).
{% endhint %}

With a custom subdirectory, you can make your docs site accessible at `example.com/docs`. This is different from a [custom domain](/docs/docs-site/custom-domain.md) which lets you make your docs site accessible at `docs.example.com`.

One reason to do this is so that your docs URL is formatted in a consistent way with your other site URLs. Using a subdirectory may also be beneficial for SEO.

To configure a subdirectory, you'll need to set things up in your website's backend, then finalize the process in your GitBook site settings.
