How Do I Point My Domain to My web.me.com Account?

To point your domain to your web.me.com account, you need to add a CNAME record in the DNS management section of your account with us. Please follow these instructions:

  1. Log into your Name.com account.

  2. Click on the 'Account' icon at the top of your page.

  3. At your 'Account' page, click on the domain name you wish to modify.

  4. On the 'Domain Management' page, click on 'DNS Management' in your 'Control Panel' on the right side of your screen.

  5. On the 'DNS Management' screen, select 'CNAME' from the drop down menu.

  6. Add 'www' as the Record Host and 'web.me.com' as the Record Answer. Then click Submit.

  7. It is a good idea to add a second CNAME record with a blank record. For this record, select 'CNAME' again from the drop down menu.

  8. This time, leave the Record Host field blank and place 'web.me.com' in the Record Answer field. Then click Submit.

After doing this last step, the page should refresh. You should now see your newly created DNS record listed on the 'DNS Management' screen.

Please note: Your domain name must be using our name servers, ns1.name.com, ns2.name.com, ns3.name.com, and ns4.name.com, for your newly created DNS record to work. To check whether your domain is using our servers, click 'Edit Name Servers' under the 'Domain Management' section of your 'Control Panel'. Under 'Current Name Servers', you should see our name servers listed. If not, you will need to remove the servers currently in place and add ours. If you need to make this change, please be aware that your DNS record will go 'live' 24 hours after the change has been made.
