Custom Domain Names

Can I buy a domain from Podpage, or do I need my own?

Podpage doesn't sell domain names. Buy any domain you like from a registrar such as Namecheap, Hover, or GoDaddy, then connect it to your Podpage.

Can I set up my Podpage at mydomain.com/podcast?

Podpage works at www.yourdomain.com or a subdomain like podcast.yourdomain.com, but it can't live in a subfolder of an existing website.

Connecting your custom domain to your Podpage

Connect a custom domain to your Podpage: add the domain in your dashboard, update your DNS records at your registrar, and wait for propagation.

Give Podpage access to set up your GoDaddy domain

Stuck connecting your GoDaddy domain? Use GoDaddy's Delegate Access feature to invite Podpage, and we'll set up your DNS records for you.

Moving your Podpage from one domain to another

Switch your Podpage to a new domain without losing traffic: add DNS records to the new domain, update Podpage, and forward the old domain.

Pointing a HostGator domain name to your Podpage

Connect a HostGator domain to Podpage by asking HostGator support via live chat to add the CNAME and A record for you.

Pointing more than one domain at your Podpage

Use two or more domain names for your Podpage: pick one primary domain, connect it to Podpage, and forward the others to it at your registrar.

Setting up your Podpage with a Cloudflare domain name

Connect a Cloudflare-managed domain to Podpage: follow the standard DNS setup, but set the Podpage records to "DNS only" instead of Proxied.

Connect your GoDaddy domain to your Podpage website by turning off forwarding and adding the Podpage DNS records in GoDaddy's DNS manager.

Setting up your Podpage with a Hover domain

Connect your Hover domain to your Podpage website by editing or adding a CNAME record in Hover's DNS settings.

Troubleshooting Hostinger domains

If your Hostinger domain shows an SSL error or a page-not-found after pointing it at Podpage, DNSSEC or DNS propagation is usually the cause.

What are the Podpage DNS settings for my domain?

The DNS records that point your domain at Podpage: a CNAME to domains.podpage.com, plus an A record to 54.90.47.105 for root domains.

What to do if you can't edit DNS settings on GoDaddy

See a "Can't edit" message on your GoDaddy DNS records? Forwarding, custom nameservers, or a GoDaddy website product is usually the cause.
