1. Update A Record in DNS Settings

  • Log in to your domain registrar or DNS hosting provider (e.g., Hostantic, GoDaddy, Namecheap, Cloudflare).
  • Locate the DNS Management section.
  • Add or update an A Record:
    • Host: @ (or your subdomain like www)
    • Type: A
    • Value: Your server's IP address
    • TTL: Default (usually 3600 seconds)
  • Save the changes.

2. Configure Reverse DNS (Optional, for Email Servers)

  • Set up PTR records via your hosting provider to map the IP back to the domain.

3. Update Server Configuration

  • Ensure your web server (Apache, Nginx) is configured to handle requests for the domain.

4. Wait for DNS Propagation

  • DNS changes can take a few minutes to 48 hours to propagate globally.
