GoDaddy Custom Domain Setup
To connect your solo.to page to a domain registered on GoDaddy follow the steps listed below. If you don't have a domain yet, you can buy one from GoDaddy here.
Step 1:
Add the WWW version of your domain from your solo.to Account page and click Continue.
Step 2:
Visit the GoDaddy dashboard and add the following record from the DNS tab for the domain you would like to connect.
TYPE | HOST | VALUE |
---|---|---|
CNAME | www | origin.solo.to |
Step 3:
Navigate to the Forwarding tab and create the following forward, replacing "yourdomain.com" with the domain you are connecting.
Once this is done two new A records should be automatically added. Here's how the records should look in the GoDaddy DNS editor.
Issue with GoDaddy
There is currently an issue with GoDaddy where using the https:// version of the root domain (ex. https://yourdomain.com) won't work. When sharing or linking to your page using a custom domain make sure to use one of the following versions:
- http://yourdomain.com
- http://www.yourdomain.com
- https://www.yourdomain.com
