Pointing Your Custom Domain to SM Cloud Web Hosting
How to point DNS A records and CNAME records from GoDaddy, Namecheap, or Cloudflare to your SM Cloud web server.
### Recommended: A Record Configuration
To point your existing domain without changing your nameservers:
1. Log into your domain registrar (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare, Hostinger).
2. Go to DNS Management.
3. Add or edit the **A Record**:
- Host: `@`
- Points to: `Your Web Server IP` (found in your Client Area)
- TTL: Auto or 300 seconds
4. Add a **CNAME Record**:
- Host: `www`
- Points to: `yourdomain.com`
