These instructions are intended for if your DNS is not managed by DLC(that is, you currently own the domain under your domain provider). You'll need to follow these steps to have your WordPress website visible on the internet:
1. Login to the website where you purchased your domain name.
2. Go to the Admin settings
3. Choose the option to Change DNS configuration
4. Change your A records to the following IP address:
64.34.50.53
You should have two entries most likely for A records. You should have YourDomain.ca and www.YourDomain.ca. Change to the IP address (64.34.50.53) for both of these entries.
5. Save the changes and log out
Your website will be available within 24 hours of this being completed.
Note:
We recommend that you use the the Name Server of your provider as it will give you access to all your DNS record or the start of authority (SOA) record.
If you are not comfortable making the above changes, we'd recommend sending this information to your domain name company and they should be able to perform these actions on your behalf.
IMPORTANT: You WILL need to renew your domain name! We will not be notified when it is due for renewal and cannot be responsible for a loss of possession.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding our your domain name and our new websites, please submit a support request and we can help out further.
