Connect an existing business domain.
Keep the existing domain at its registrar, connect the custom hostname to the Website, and verify the public Pages before sharing.
Build around this situation.
Use your own accurate details and check the result as you go. You can return to the relevant Website editor to make corrections.
Confirm registrar ownership
Make sure you can edit DNS for the business domain and know which existing records must remain.
Add the Website records
Enter the exact values shown in Domain settings for the custom hostname.
Verify and check Pages
Wait for verification, open the HTTPS www address, and test the important public journey.
Illustrative exampleWhat a useful result looks like
- The result
- The intended hostname connects to Paazaa while unrelated services retain their records.
- What to check
- Follow the Website’s exact instructions and verify both the Website and the services you need to preserve.
Adapt the example to your Website and review the result before moving to the next task.
Keep ownership with the registrar
Paazaa connects and verifies the Website host; the business retains domain registration and renewal with its registrar.
Protect existing services
Review email and other DNS records before changing anything so the Website connection does not interrupt unrelated services.
Before you continue
Connecting an existing domain does not transfer registration, renew the domain, configure email, or guarantee a root-domain redirect.
