How to Manage DNS Settings for Your Domain on StickyHosting:
Step 1: Access Your DNS Management Panel
Log in to your domain registrar's control panel. Depending on your provider, navigate to the DNS management section. This is typically labeled as "DNS Settings," "DNS Management," or "Advanced DNS."
Step 2: Add or Modify DNS Records
StickyHosting commonly requires the following DNS records:
-
A Record: Points your domain to a specific IP address.
-
CNAME Record: Aliases one domain to another.
-
MX Record: Directs email to the correct mail servers.
-
TXT Record: Used for domain verification and email security (e.g., SPF, DKIM).
For example, to point your domain to StickyHosting, you might set an A Record with:
-
Host:
@
(or leave blank) -
Type: A
-
Value:
52.41.106.131
-
TTL: Default or 3600 seconds
For email services, you may need to add TXT records for SPF and DKIM. StickyHosting provides these details upon request.
✅ Step 3: Save Changes and Verify
After adding or modifying the necessary records, save your changes. DNS propagation can take up to 48 hours, but changes often take effect sooner.
If you're configuring email services, StickyHosting will verify the records once they've propagated.
