How do I point my domain name to my liveSite website?

If you are ready to launch your liveSite website, you will need to point your domain to our web server.

To point your domain name to your liveSite website, login to your domain name registrar, and modify your DNS settings.  Add or modify the "A" record for your domain name (e.g. www.mydomain.com and mydomain.com) to use the IP address provided for you in the e-mail sent to you when you liveSite hosting account was setup.  If you are not sure of the IP address of your liveSite website, you can login into your liveSite and click on "Site Settings". 

IMPORTANT: You don't need to change your DNS Servers themselves.  They should remain the same.  Only your DNS "A" Record settings WITHIN those DNS Servers should be modified.

In less than 24 hours, your changes will take effect, and you will be able to access your liveSite using www.mydomain.com.
