Connect your domain name to Joomag

To connect your domain to Joomag's servers, you will need to set up DNS records for your domain name to point to Joomag. When it's a custom domain, the A record should point to Joomag's IP address. This should be done on your domain registrar's website.

In most cases, you will need to create one entry for your domain without the www and another entry with the www, assuming you want your website to show up regardless of how visitors type your domain name.

Example One:

Name

TTL

TypeAddress

@

3600A

209.95.50.44

www

3600A

209.95.50.44

Example Two:

Name

TTL

TypeAddress

yourdomain.com.

3600A

209.95.50.44

3600A

209.95.50.44

If you want to connect a subdomain, the CNAME records should point to domains.joomag.com.

Name

TTL

TypeAddress

magazine.yourdomain.com

3600A

domains.joomag.com

And you may find still more slight variations. Don't panic, though. The rule of thumb is to create your entries to look like the ones already there, and if the entry already exists, then edit it instead of adding a new one.

Note: You should substitute your actual domain where it currently says yourdomain.com.

Leave all other information the same (formatted according to the specifications of your DNS server).
