To add a custom domain,
- Go to Settings > Domains section > Click “Add Custom Domain”
- In the popup that opens, enter www.yourdomain.com

- Follow the instructions that open up below that section and copy the CNAME into your DNS registrar’s dashboard.
- Once you add a CNAME, you can verify that your domain propagation is complete by hiting the “Verify” button.
Note: It may take a little while for the DNS changes to propagate across the globe. Try checking back in 5-10 minutes, and it should be working.
Set the root/apex domain as the default domain
If you wish to direct
yourdomain.com to your website without the www or any subdomain, there is a little caveat that you have to follow.Lot of CNAME providers doesn’t offer CNAME flattening which is required to setup website with Bullet.
Note: If your DNS provider doesn’t offer CNAME flattening, you can point your domain nameservers (NS records) to a third-party DNS provider like Cloudflare so you can manage your DNS records there. Cloudflare is free to use, and they offer additional benefits beyond DNS services.
If your DNS provider offers CNAME flattening, ALIAS, or ANAME records, you can redirect all traffic to your site's root domain (e.g., yourdomain.com) on SSL hosting.
The following DNS providers allow you to point root domains to a CNAME/ANAME/ALIAS record:
You can also contact your DNS host to find out if they offer CNAME flattening.
