How to Add DNS Records for Any Domain

Log in to your domain registrar

Go to the website where you purchased your domain (e.g., GoDaddy, Namecheap, Hostcarts, BigRock, Cloudflare).

Open the domain management section

Look for options like:

• Domain List
• Domain Manager

Select the domain you want to edit.

Click to open it.

Add a new DNS record

Click it.

Common DNS record types:

Enter the required values

Example values:

A Record

• Host: @
• Value: 123.45.67.89 (your server IP)
• TTL: Auto or 300 seconds

CNAME

• Host: www
• Value: yourdomain.com
