Final Step: Connecting Your Domain

Step 1 – Log in to your domain host

Go to your Domain Management area.
Locate the DNS settings/DNS records section.

Step 2 – Add a CNAME record

Create a new CNAME record with the following settings:

Host/Alias: www
Destination/Target: s.multiscreensite.com

Step 3 – Add A records for the root domain

Point the root of your domain ( domain.com ) to your new website by creating two A records:

First A Record

Host/Alias: @
Destination/Target: 35.172.94.1

Second A Record

Host/Alias: @
Destination/Target: 100.24.208.97

Allow time for DNS propagation

Changes typically take 24–48 hours to fully propagate worldwide.
In some cases, it may take up to 72 hours.
During this time, some visitors may still see your old site until the update completes.
Once the site is published, check the Settings > SSL Certification generation

Once all steps are completed, we suggest reviewing the Post Launch QA checklist.

If you have any issues, please contact your domain host support provider for assitance with the DNS changes provided in the instructions above.
