In this tutorial we cover how to link a domain registered with GoDaddy to your Fabrik website.

GoDaddy Domain Instructions

Go to the GoDaddy website and click the "Sign In" link at the top of the page.

Once logged in, click "Domains" to view your domains, find the domain you wish to link to Fabrik then click the "Manage" button:

On the "Domain Details" page select the "DNS Zone File" tab to view your domain's DNS records:

If this is an existing domain you may have a few records already configured. In any case, the ones we are interested in are:

DNS Entry    Type       Example URL
@            A          yourdomain.com
www          A/CNAME    www.yourdomain.com

Change the "@" A (Host) record to Fabrik's IP address 23.101.60.214 by clicking the Edit button next to the domain:

If you have "www" configured as a A (Host) record then you should update it with the same IP Address. Otherwise it will likely be configured as a CNAME (Alias) in which case you do not need to do anything:

The final step is to link your domain in the Fabrik dashboard.

The Internet is a big place!

DNS records are replicated all over the internet so any changes you make can often take up to 48 hours to propagate. If after a few hours your domain still goes to the old location, please be patient and wait a bit longer. If you want absolute confirmation that you've set everything up correctly you can use Dig Web Interface.
