GoDaddy setup

Connect a GoDaddy domain

Add two DNS records in GoDaddy to point your domain at your Artist Kit page.

Before you start

Connect your domain in the Artist Kit editor first (Settings → Domain on a Pro plan). That reveals your exact records — especially your unique www value, which you'll copy below.

The records to add

TypeNameValue
A@216.150.1.1
CNAMEwwwthe value shown in your dashboard

The A record points your bare domain (yourdomain.com) at Artist Kit. Use 216.150.1.1.

Your www value is unique to your page — copy the exact value shown in Settings → Domain. It looks like a string of letters and numbers followed by .vercel-dns-016.com.

Both records make www.yourdomain.com and yourdomain.com work. SSL is issued automatically once DNS propagates — usually a few minutes.

Step-by-step

1

Sign in and open your domain

Log in to GoDaddy, then open your Domain Portfolio (under your account, choose Domains). Find the domain you want to use.

2

Open DNS management

Select the three-dot menu next to your domain and choose Edit DNS (also labelled Manage DNS) to open the DNS Records table.

3

Add the A record

Choose Add New Record. Set Type to A, Name to @, and Value to 216.150.1.1, leaving TTL on default. If an A record already exists on @ (GoDaddy often parks one), edit that one instead of adding a duplicate.

4

Add the CNAME record

Add New Record again. Set Type to CNAME, Name to www, and Value to the exact www value shown in your Artist Kit editor (it ends in .vercel-dns-016.com). Save.

5

Remove conflicting records

Delete any GoDaddy parking or forwarding records on @ or www so they don't override your new records.

After saving, DNS changes usually take a few minutes to propagate. Artist Kit verifies the connection automatically and issues SSL once it's live.
