  I made a website using Weebly and need to point my domain to their servers. Can you set this up or walk me through the process of making these changes? I need to change my A-Records for both “www” and my root domain. That’s one record for http://www.nitashamanpreet.com pointing to 199.34.228.59. And one record for nitashamanpreet.com also pointing to 199.34.228.59.

  If you need more info on these changes, please see:

  Note that I want to keep using you as my domain registrar. I am not requesting a transfer and do not have new name servers to provide you.

  Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I attempted to change the DNS record and it doesnt seem to be working. Cleared my cookies and even checked on other devices, still a no go.

  If you have followed all the steps correctly it can take a couple days for the changes to take effect across the internet. Please give it some time.

  Also, just in case something was not changed correctly, I have tagged this thread so that it can be addressed by a staff member. Please make sure you are subscribed to this thread so that you know when the staff member responds. You can subscribe by clicking the “Subscribe to Topic” link on the right.

  Hi @msgill: Weebly’s guide mentions two A records that need to be added to your domain here:

  http://hc.weebly.com/hc/en-us/articles/202147473-Use-a-Wordpress-Domain-with-Your-Site

  I notice the second of these, the one with the www. in front, was missing from your records and so I went ahead to add this on your behalf. Can you clear your browser’s cache and visit nitashamanpreet.com now? You’ll now see your Weebly site. :)

  If you have any issues around that, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
