Point your domain to a website or hosting
To make your domain show a website, you point it at your hosting provider's server.
- Find the IP address (or target hostname) in your hosting control panel.
- Open your domain in My domains → Manage DNS records.
- Add an A record: Name
@, Value = the IP address. - Add a CNAME record: Name
www, Value = your domain, so www works too.
If your host gave you nameservers instead (e.g. Cloudflare or managed WordPress hosts), skip DNS records and change the nameservers on the domain page instead — DNS is then managed at that provider.
Changes go live within minutes, but browsers and ISPs may cache the old answer for up to the record's TTL.
