Mapping Your Domain Name to Squarespace

Date Submitted: 4-19-2013

To configure Squarespace to work with your domain name, you need to edit your www CNAME record and your @ A record. You can edit these zone file records using the Zone File Editor in the DNS Manager.

To Map Your Domain Name to Squarespace

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. Next to Domains, click Launch.
  3. From the Tools menu, select DNS Manager. The DNS Dashboard displays.
  4. For the domain name you want to use with your Squarespace account, click Edit Zone. The Zone File Editor displays.
  5. In the A (Host) section, click the @ record.
  6. In the Points To field, enter 65.39.205.54 (Squarespace 5) or 65.39.205.57 (Squarespace 6).
  7. In the CNAME (Alias) section, click the www record.
  8. In the Points to field, enter www.squarespace.com.
  9. Click Zone File Editor, and then click OK.
  10. Log in to your Squarespace site manager.
  11. From the Custom Domain tab, click check setup.

NOTE: It can take up to 48 hours for the Internet to reflect any DNS changes you make.
