This article will show you how to connect a domain to your Dr Tech store.
We will see how to replace the default Dr Tech URL you started with : www.yourstore.hellodr.tech
By your domain.
Moreover, you will be able to create up to 5 profesional email adresses, for free, they are included in your Dr Tech membership 🙂
With these adresses, you will be able to receive and send emails with your own domain name.
Please note: if you already own your domain name and you bought it with IONOS, we won’t be able to create email adresses for you. You will need to transfer your domain to another provider first. Contact us for more details.
What do you want to do ?
Once we bought your domain, or connected your domain, or created the email adresses, you will receive a confirmation email, usually between 1 and 2 working days.
While we work on this for you, you can still use your Dr Tech store.
Connect your domain name to your Dr Tech store
Before anything : Is your domain already connected to a store ?
If your domain name is already connected to a store, and this store is live (i.e have traffic), connecting your domain to your Dr Tech store will put your store offline for 1-2 business days while we do the connection, then the traffic will arrive on your Dr tech store.
If you need to minimize this downtime, please contact us. We can do the transfer with you and reduce the downtime to a few minutes.
In any other cases, let’s connect your domain now!
Even if it’s easy to do it yoursel, it remains a technical modification of your domain. As we don’t have access to your registrar account (the company where you bought the domain), we unfortunately can not do it for you. But if you need any help, feel free to contact your registrar support, they can do that for you.
First of all, log in to your registrar account, then go in the DNS settings of your domain.
Then, add the 2 following A record:
1.
Type : A
Host : @
Value : 77.68.3.224
2.
Type : CNAME
Host : www
Value : your domain name
Make sure you have no other A or AAA record. If you do have, please delete them.
Et voilà !
