Dreamhost Domain Instructions

Dreamhost Domain Instructions

This article contains instructions on how to configure your domain to about.me. 

First, login to your Dreamhost account (https://panel.dreamhost.com/).

Next, click on Manage Domains.

Now click 'DNS' under the domain you'd like to configure to about.me.

Scroll down and find the section that says "Add a custom DNS record to [your domain name]"

*Note: skip this step if you are configuring a subdomain. 

Paste 54.214.5.242 in to the "Value" field, then click Add Record Now. 

Next, add 'www' into the Name field and change the Type from 'A' to 'CNAME' using the selector. 

 *Note: For mapping a subdomain, add a CNAME record in which 'www' is replaced by your subdomain.

Then input about.me in the Value field and click Add Record Now. 

*Note: It may take up to 24hrs for the changes to take effect.
