Connect Your GoDaddy Domain

[funnelish]

This guide connects a domain hosted at GoDaddy to your funnel. Two steps: add one DNS record in GoDaddy, then connect the domain in Funnelish. Five minutes of work, plus DNS propagation time.

Not sure whether to use your main domain or a subdomain? See Connect Your Domain first. The short version:

• www. counts as a subdomain

• If your main domain already serves something else (like a Shopify store), use a subdomain for your funnels, e.g. go.mydomain.com

Option 1: main domain (A record)

Use this only if the main domain itself (e.g. mystore.com) should open your funnel.

Pointing your main domain at Funnelish replaces whatever that domain currently serves.

1. Log in to your GoDaddy Domain Control Center and select your domain

2. Click Manage DNS, then Add

3. In the Type field, select A, and enter @ in the Name field

4. Enter 151.101.2.184 in the Value field

5. Set the TTL to one hour

6. Click Add Record

Delete or edit any other A record with the name @. Two A records on the same name is the most common reason the connection fails.

Option 2: subdomain (CNAME record)

1. Log in to your GoDaddy Domain Control Center and select your domain

2. Click Manage DNS, then Add

3. In the Type field, select CNAME

4. Enter your prefix in the Name field, e.g. go for go.mydomain.com

5. Enter domains.funnelish.com in the Value field

6. Set the TTL to one hour

7. Click Add Record

Make sure no other A, AAAA or CNAME record uses the same Name, or the connection will fail.

GoDaddy DNS changes usually apply in under an hour, but can take up to 24 hours. Once they’re live, continue below.

Connect the domain in Funnelish

1. Open the funnel you’re connecting and click the Funnel Settings icon

2. Under Funnel Settings, click Connect a new domain and enter your domain

Enter it exactly as you configured it:

• Subdomain: write it in full, e.g. go.mydomain.com

• Main domain: write the naked domain, e.g. mydomain.com, without www

3. Click Connect, then Verify

4. Once verified, pick the new domain from the Domain dropdown and click Save changes

Funnelish updates the funnel’s URL automatically:

If verification fails

DNS propagation is the usual cause: wait a few minutes and click Verify again (in rare cases it takes a few hours). If it still fails after that, re-check your records against the steps above, then see Common Domain Setup Issues & How to Fix Them. All in order and still stuck? Contact support and we’ll take a look.
