Point a Domain to Your Website in Website Builder

This article explains how to point your domain to your website hosted on Vodien Website Builder by updating the required DNS records.

The table below lists the DNS records that need to be added or updated in your domain’s DNS settings so the domain points to your website correctly. Once the DNS changes have propagated, visitors will be able to access your website using your domain name.

Name / Host / Alias Record Type IP Address

Name / Host / Alias	Record Type	IP Address
`yourdomain.com`)	A	(Your cPanel IP address) ex. (`192.0.2.1`)
www.(`yourdomain.com`)	A	(Your cPanel IP address) ex. (`192.0.2.1`)

yourdomain.com)

(Your cPanel IP address)

ex. (192.0.2.1)

www.(yourdomain.com)

(Your cPanel IP address)

ex. (192.0.2.1)

NOTE. You can leave the Name / Host / Alias field empty if your DNS host automatically applies the record to your main domain. Some DNS hosts may require using @ to represent the main domain.

DNS zone specific instructions

The steps to add or edit the A records for your website in Website Builder depend on the DNS zone you are using. Please follow the instructions for your DNS zone:

Account Manager DNS
cPanel DNS (by default, this is already configured)

NOTE. To find out where your DNS zone is found, read Vodien DNS guide.

General instructions

If your DNS is hosted with another provider, follow these general setup instructions:

Go to the DNS settings of your domain.
Find the existing A record for your domain (both with and without www).
Update or add the required A records.
Wait for the changes to take effect. DNS update may take up to 72 hours to work.
