How to buy a domain

To make your site open at a nice address like mysite.com, you need to take 3 steps:

1. Buy a domain from a registrar

2. Specify it in the site settings

Go to Site Settings → Domain, specify the domain and save the changes. The system will tell you the optimal IP address for your site of A-records that need to be installed on the registrar side.

3. Add an A-record at the registrar

The registrar is the site where you bought the domain (for example, GoDaddy, etc.). Each registrar has a personal account where you can manage the domain settings.

To make the site work at your address, you need to

1. Log in to your personal account at the domain registrar.
2. Go to the DNS section or DNS zone management.
3. Add a new record:

• Type: A
• Name: @ (means the main domain, without www)
• Value: IP address specified in Site Settings → Domain

Example:

If you connect the domain mycompany.com, the record will look like this:

@ A 123.45.67.89

Changes take effect within 15 minutes and up to 24 hours.
