How to connect your OVH domain to SleepPRO™
Custom domains
Here is how to connect a domain bought at OVH, so your funnels and blog show at your own address.
First add your domain in SleepPRO™, as described in step 1 of How to connect your domain to SleepPRO™. Each domain gets its own CNAME records.
First CNAME record
- Open the DNS zone of your domain in OVH.
- Click Add entry and choose CNAME.
- In the subdomain box, enter www.
- In the target box, enter the first value from SleepPRO™, ending in cloudfront.net, with the full stop at the end.
A www CNAME record already there? Edit its target instead.
Second CNAME record
- Click Add entry and choose CNAME.
- In the subdomain box, enter the code from SleepPRO™ which comes before your domain, starting with an underscore.
- In the target box, enter the second value from SleepPRO™, ending in acm-validations.aws.
Add a redirect
- Click Redirection, then Add redirection.
- Leave the field empty to redirect the main domain and click Next.
- Choose a web address and click Next.
- Choose visible redirection.
- Choose Permanent (301), enter https://www.yoursleepbusiness.com, confirm and click Next.
Check your records
Go to dnschecker.org and enter the full name of each record, including your domain. All should show green. If not, review your DNS settings.
DNS changes take 24 to 48 hours to spread fully.
If OVH will not save a record because of a conflict, ask OVH whether the existing record is needed or can be removed.
