This section will guide you through the process of configuring domains for your website. Configuring domains is essential for ensuring that your website is accessible and can be found easily by users.
Overview
- What is a Domain? A domain is the address that users type into their browser to access your website.
- Why Configure Domains? Configuring domains helps in managing multiple websites under one domain name and ensures better user experience.
Steps to Configure Domains
- Register a Domain Name: Choose a domain name that is easy to remember and represents your brand or website.
- Point Domain to Server: Update the DNS settings of your domain to point to your web server's IP address.
- Verify Domain Ownership: Some services require you to verify domain ownership before you can use it with their platform.
Common Issues and Solutions
