How to Add a Domain Print

This guide explains how to add a domain name to your hosting account so it can display your website.

What Does Adding a Domain Do?

Adding a domain connects your domain name (e.g. yourdomain.com) to your hosting account so visitors can access your website.

Before You Start

• You must already own the domain
• Your domain should be pointing to your hosting (nameservers or A record)

Step 1: Log into AdminBolt

Access your AdminBolt Client Panel using your login details.

Step 2: Navigate to Domains

Step 4: Wait for DNS to Update

If your domain was not already pointing to your hosting, it may take some time to start working.

• DNS changes can take up to 24 hours
• Often works much sooner

Common Issues

Domain Not Loading

• Check your DNS settings
• Ensure domain is pointing to the correct server

Wrong Website Showing

• Check the domain is assigned to the correct directory

Important Notes

• You can add multiple domains depending on your hosting plan
• Each domain can point to a different site or folder
