Use your existing Google Domains domain on OfferingTree

Connect your Google Domains domain to your OfferingTree site by updating your domain's DNS settings. This allows you to maintain ownership of your domain and continue to renew it directly through Google Domains. You will continue to be responsible for paying for your domain through Google Domains.

Here's how:

1. Log in to Google Domains: Go to domains.google.com and log in to your Google Domains account.

2. Select Your Domain: Choose the domain you want to connect to OfferingTree.

3. Navigate to DNS Settings: Click on the "DNS" tab for your selected domain.

4. Custom resource records: You'll need to add two custom resource records:

   • WWW CNAME Record:

     • Name: www
     • Type: CNAME
     • Data: customdomains.offeringtree.com

   • @ A Record (for your root domain):

     • Name: @ (or your root domain, e.g., yourdomain.com)
     • Type: A
     • Data: 35.209.110.2

5. Save Changes: Click "Save" to apply the changes to your DNS records.

6. Contact OfferingTree: Email us at support@offeringtree.com to let us know you've completed these steps. We'll then finalize the connection on our end. Please allow up to 24 hours for the DNS changes to propagate.

Important Notes for Google Domains:

• Propagation: After saving your DNS changes, it can take some time for them to propagate across the internet. Be patient.
• Contact OfferingTree: It's essential to contact OfferingTree after making the DNS changes so we can complete the setup.
• Support: If you have any trouble, contact Google Domains customer support for assistance. They are the best resource for questions about their specific interface.
• Root Domain: The "@" symbol represents your root domain (e.g., yourdomain.com).
