Point a Domain to Your WordPress Hosting Website
This guide outlines the process for directing your domain to your website hosted on WordPress Hosting with Vodien. By following these steps, visitors will be able to reach your site using your chosen domain name.
To achieve this, you will need to configure specific DNS records within your domain’s DNS management panel so that your domain directs traffic to your WordPress Hosting environment.
Add the following DNS records to your domain’s DNS settings to connect your domain to your WordPress Hosting site:
| Name / Host / Alias | Record Type | IP Address |
|---|---|---|
|
|
A |
ex. ( |
|
www.( |
A |
(Your cPanel IP address) ex. ( |
DNS zone specific instructions
The method for adding or updating A records depends on where your DNS is managed. Refer to the instructions corresponding to your DNS zone:
- Account Manager DNS
- cPanel DNS (by default, this is already configured)
General steps
If your domain’s DNS is managed by a provider other than Vodien, use these general instructions below:
- Access your domain’s DNS management panel.
- Locate the existing A record entries for your domain, both with and without the www prefix.
- Edit or add the necessary A records as specified above.
- Allow time for DNS propagation. Changes may take up to 72 hours to become active.
By completing these steps, your domain will be configured to point to your WordPress Hosting site.
