How to Connect Your Domain

Back to module in this section
 
Use your current domain or purchase a new one. Login to the domain registrar account and locate the section for managing DNS Settings.

This is often labeled as "Manage DNS" or "Zone File Editor" Find the CNAME record for "www" and edit it to point to domain.multisiteadmin.com (If no CNAME record for "www" exists, create one with this value) Locate the existing "A Record" for "@" and update it to point to 50.17.250.125 (If no A record for "@" exists, create one with this value)

Add an additional "A Record" for "@" and set it to point to 54.164.59.88 (Ensure that you only have two "A Records" for "@," one pointing to 50.17.250.125 and the other to 54.164.59.88. Delete any additional "A Records" for "@" that may exist.) Make sure you have entered your domain above and click the "Save" button.

Please Note:
It can take up to 72 hours for the change to fully take place so please be patient.
You do not need to change the domain's nameservers, only the CNAME Record and the two A Records.

You do not need to purchase any hosting services for the domain.
Still having issues? Contact your domain registrar's customer service or email support@affordable-sites.org for help.
