Verify the Website domain connection.

Use Domain settings to check the configured www host, DNS result, and connection state before treating the address as ready.

Follow the steps.

Use your own accurate details and check the result as you go. You can return to the relevant Website editor to make corrections.

  1. Check the configured host

    Confirm the Website is verifying the intended customer-owned custom address.

  2. Run or review verification

    Use the status and verification control exposed by Domain settings.

  3. Resolve the displayed issue

    If verification fails, compare the registrar records with the exact current values before retrying.

Illustrative example

What a useful result looks like

The result
You can distinguish ownership confirmation from routing and HTTPS readiness.
What to check
Wait for each required state and check that the address displays the intended Website.

Adapt the example to your Website and review the result before moving to the next task.

Read the current state

Pending, connected, and failed states describe different next actions. Keep the displayed host and records as the source of truth.

Check propagation patiently

A registrar can accept a record before all resolvers return it; retrying without checking the values does not speed propagation.

Before you continue

Domain verification does not register the domain, make the root host redirect, or guarantee that every Page is ready to share.

Make the next change with a clear result in mind.
