Can You Connect a GoDaddy Domain to Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 12:19 am

GoDaddy is a domain registrar and web hosting company. Squarespace is a website builder and hosting company. You can connect your GoDaddy domain to Squarespace in a few easy steps.

First, you’ll need to log in to your GoDaddy account and go to your Domain Manager. Then, find the domain you want to connect to Squarespace and click on the DNS Zone File tab.

PRO TIP: GoDaddy is a popular domain registrar, but you cannot connect your GoDaddy domain to your Squarespace account. You must first transfer your domain to Squarespace before you can use it on your website.

Next, you’ll need to edit the A record for @ and the CNAME record for www. In both cases, you’ll need to change the destination/target/points to per instructions provided by Squarespace. Finally, save your changes and wait for the DNS changes to propagate, which can take up to 48 hours.

Connecting your GoDaddy domain to Squarespace is a fairly easy process that can be completed in just a few steps. Once you’ve completed the process, you’ll be able to manage your website and domain all in one place.
