Welcome to our quick tutorial! Today, we’ll guide you through the process of adding your domain in HighLevel, making it accessible and functional for your website or funnel. Whether you’re using GoDaddy or another domain provider, these straightforward steps will help you configure your DNS settings with ease.
Step 1: Access Your HighLevel Account
First, ensure you are logged into your HighLevel account or sub-account where you wish to add the domain. This is crucial as the settings and domain configurations are specific to each account.
Step 2: Navigate to Domain Settings
Once logged in, go to the Settings section in HighLevel. Look for the Domains option within the settings menu. Here, you will have the ability to add a new domain.
Step 3: Add a New Domain
Click on Add New Domain. For this example, let’s use ghltutor.com. After entering the domain name, you will need to adjust your DNS settings to connect your domain properly.
Step 4: Configure DNS Settings
For GoDaddy Users:
- Access Your Domain Portfolio: Log in to your GoDaddy account and navigate to your domain portfolio.
- Edit DNS Settings: Select the domain you want to configure and choose to edit its DNS settings.
- Add a New Record: Depending on your requirement, you can either add an A Record or a CNAME Record.
- A Record: Copy the provided IP address and paste it into the value field for the A record.
- CNAME Record: Enter the specific CNAME value, such as flash.funnels.messagesender.com, into the designated field.
- Save Changes: Once you’ve added the necessary record, save your changes.
Step 5: Verify Your Domain in HighLevel
After saving the DNS records, return to your domain settings in HighLevel. You might see a message indicating that the domain already exists if it has been added previously. This is normal and signifies that your domain is recognized.
Step 6: Connect Your Domain
To finalize the connection, click on the pencil icon next to your domain in HighLevel. This allows you to select the funnel, website, or specific page you want your domain to connect to. This step is crucial because your website or funnel won’t be live until it is connected to a live domain.
Step 7: Set the Default Page
Once you’ve selected the destination for your domain, choose the default page that visitors will see when they access your domain. This ensures that anyone visiting your domain will be directed to the correct content.
Conclusion
You’ve successfully added your domain and connected it to your desired funnel, landing page, or website in HighLevel. The process is straightforward once you understand the steps involved in configuring DNS settings and connecting your domain.
