Custom Domain Setup
Connect your own domain so your site lives at yourserver.com instead of yourserver.blazesites.net.
Step 1 — Add your domain
Go to Settings → Domain → + Add Domain and enter your domain:
yourserver.com
Step 2 — Configure DNS
Log in to your domain registrar (Cloudflare, Namecheap, GoDaddy, etc.) and add the following DNS record:
| Type | Name | Value | TTL |
|---|---|---|---|
| CNAME | @ or www | sites.blazesites.net | Auto |
If your registrar doesn't support CNAME on the root (@), use an A record instead:
| Type | Name | Value | TTL |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | @ | 76.76.21.21 | Auto |
Step 3 — Verify
DNS propagation typically takes 1-15 minutes. Blaze Sites checks automatically.
Once verified, your dashboard shows:
✓ yourserver.com — Verified
SSL: Active
SSL certificate
SSL is provisioned automatically within 5 minutes of domain verification. No configuration needed.
www redirect
www.yourserver.com is automatically redirected to yourserver.com (or vice versa, based on your preference in Settings → Domain → Redirect).
Removing a domain
Go to Settings → Domain → Remove. Your site reverts to yourserver.blazesites.net.
