Connecting your domain to Shopify allows your online store to run on a clean, professional web address instead of the default Shopify URL. The process is simple and only takes a few minutes.
Follow the steps below to point your domain to Shopify:
-
Log in to your domain management account and navigate to the Domains section.
-
Click on the dropdown icon next to your domain and select Manage Nameservers.
This is where you can update the DNS settings for your domain. -
Replace your current nameservers with Shopify’s nameservers.
Shopify provides these in your Shopify admin under Settings > Domains. -
After entering the Shopify nameservers, click on Change Nameservers to save your updates.
Once saved, DNS propagation will begin. It may take a few minutes to a few hours for your domain to fully connect and start pointing to your Shopify store.
