Use your existing Network Solutions domain on OfferingTree

Connect your Network Solutions 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 Network Solutions. You will continue to be responsible for paying for your domain through Network Solutions.

Here's how:

1. Log in to Network Solutions: Go to NetworkSolutions.com and log in to your account.

2. Manage Domains: Navigate to the section for managing your domains. This is often labeled "Manage My Domains" or something similar.

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

4. Edit DNS Records (Advanced DNS): Look for a section called "Advanced DNS Records," "Edit DNS Records," "DNS Management," or similar. You'll need access to the advanced DNS settings.

5. Add/Edit DNS Records: You'll need to add or edit two records:

   • WWW CNAME Record:

     • If a CNAME record for "www" exists: Find it and edit it.
     • If a CNAME record for "www" doesn't exist: Add a new record.
     • Type: CNAME
     • Host/Name: www
     • Value/Points to/Target: customdomains.offeringtree.com

   • @ A Record (for your root domain):

     • If an A record for "@" or your root domain (e.g., yourdomain.com) exists: Find it and edit it.
     • If an A record for "@" or your root domain doesn't exist: Add a new record.
     • Type: A
     • Host/Name: @ (or your root domain)
     • Value/Points to/IP Address: 35.209.110.2

6. Save Changes: Save the changes you've made to the DNS records.

7. 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 Network Solutions:

• Network Solutions Interface: Network Solutions' interface might vary slightly depending on your account type. If you have trouble finding the correct settings, consult their help documentation or contact their support.
• Advanced DNS: You must be using the advanced DNS settings to add the CNAME and A records. If you only see basic settings, look for an option to switch to advanced DNS management.
• 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 Network Solutions' customer support for assistance. They are the best resource for questions about their specific interface.
• Root Domain: The "@" symbol often represents your root domain (e.g., yourdomain.com). Some providers might use a different way to indicate the root domain, so check their documentation or contact support if you're not sure.
