What DNS settings are required to point a domain to our Gahela cloud site @gahelasites.com
Created
If you have a domain where Gahela is not the registrar (e.g. GoDaddy, NameCheap, etc.) you can point your domain to your Gahela cloud site with one of the following methods:
Method #1. Recommended: Most registrars have their own DNS hosting. With this you can setup your MX mail settings, and your domain settings in the same place. To point your domain to Gahela you will need to create 3 new DNS A (address) record to point to the Gahela domain. For example,
| HOST NAME | Record Type | Address |
|---|---|---|
| www | A(Address) | 64.235.48.20 |
| @ | A(Address) | 64.235.48.20 |
| * | A(Address) | 64.235.48.20 |
The following records will send all domains with www, *(wildcards), and any other request not explicitly sent anywhere else (e.g. a mail server) to your Gahela website.
Method #2. If your register doesn't have DNS hosting you can use Gahela's DNS hosting by entering the following as your name servers in your domain admin:
ns1.gahelasites.com
ns2.gahelasites.com
This will send all requests to your Gahela website.
