The Takeaway

Connecting a domain to Shopify is a simple way to create a website to market an online store. It is a beneficial option for entrepreneurs who are looking for an easy, all-in-one solution for selling their products. In order to get started, the user must first purchase a domain name from a web builder such as Bluehost or GoDaddy. Once the user has selected their domain name, he or she is ready to connect the domain to their Shopify store. The first step is to log into Shopify and navigate to the ‘Domains’ page. Here, the user can enter the new domain name into the ‘Connect existing domain’ field. Shopify will then provide a list of records to add to the selected domain. These records will help direct web traffic to the user’s Shopify store instead of the default domain address. After all records are added, the user must save the changes and wait for the domain to fully propagate on the web. Once complete, the user will be able to finish off the account setup details and start selling products through their Shopify store.
