Setting up your domain with GoDaddy

Updated: May 12, 2020 By Aidi Leave a Comment

If you’ve bought a domain from GoDaddy, you must reconfigure your DNS settings to point the domain at your Shopify-hosted storefront.

  • A dialog window opens. Change the Points to: field to point towards sub.yourdomain.com (replace YourStoreName with your actual .myshopify.com store name). For example:
    yourdomain
    Click Finish.

  • Click Save Changes in the action needed bar.
    Save Changes

  • After you’ve claimed your domain, it can take up to 48 hours for changes to take effect. You can check the status of your domains here to see if the changes have been applied.

    If you are not able to edit your DNS records from within your domain provider’s Admin section, it’s likely that you have your domain’s nameservers pointed to a third party. To resolve this issue, you must contact your domain provider to have them point your domain’s nameservers to their default nameservers.
