Follow the records shown for your domain
Add the hostname in site settings and complete the ownership and routing instructions shown. Certificate provisioning is a separate stage and can take time. Do not replace unrelated DNS records blindly, especially records used for email. Wait for a connected status before treating the address as ready for customers.
Practical checklist
- Confirm registrar access
- Add the intended hostname
- Follow the displayed verification records
- Preserve unrelated email records
- Wait for connected status and test HTTPS
