An A record (Address record) maps your domain name to an IPv4 address, directing visitors to the correct server hosting your website. Adding an A record ensures your domain points to the right location on the internet.
Steps to Add an A Record
Go to My Domains.
Select the domain you want to update.
Click DNS Records under Manage.
Click Add new record.
Under Type, select A.
Under Name, enter the value provided by your hosting provider (often @ for the root domain or www for a subdomain).
Under Value, enter the IPv4 address from your hosting provider.
For TTL, leave it at 1 hour unless otherwise advised.
Special Note
An A record must point to a valid IPv4 address. If your hosting provider gives you an IPv6 address instead, you’ll need to add an AAAA record instead of an A record.
Example:
Type: A
Name: @
Value: 192.0.2.123
