Set up a custom domain for Store.link

Your Store.link can be loaded on your custom domain. For example, URL that looks like this:

https://mystore.store.link

can be set to load on your website like:

store.yourwebsite.com

Here are the steps to follow.

TLDR: Add a CNAME DNS record for subdomain → cname.store.link

Setup custom domain in Store.link Dashboard

Go to General settings and then go to Domain > Custom Domain.  In this example, we will load our form on the URL store.micro.company

Point CNAME to the subdomain

This is the second step. You have to add a CNAME record in your website DNS settings. Depending on your DNS provider, the steps can change a bit. Here are the instructions if you are using GoDaddy:

Go to My Domains and select Manage DNS for your website.

Now, you will see all the DNS records already added. Click on the ADD button to add a new record.

Add the details.

  • Set Type as CNAME.

  • Host should be set to your subdomain name. Here it is form.

  • Points to should be set to cname.store.link or your existing store link

  • Leave TTL to the default value.

And then Save the record.

Test the custom domain

Once you are done with the setup, test the URL on a browser.

Adding DNS record in Cloudflare

If you are using Cloudflare to manage your website DNS, then there is an additional step you need to take care of.

Click on Add record under DNS settings and provide the details as shown below.

Make sure that the Proxy status is set to DNS only.

Note

If you are unfamiliar with CNAME records or DNS settings, kindly contact your hosting provider or web development team. They can do this for you in a minute.

We use https://letsencrypt.org/ to automatically provision SSL certificates to make your custom domain support HTTPS. With this Automated Certificate Management (ACM) service, you will be free from all the hurdles of creating an SSL certificate and periodically renewing it.

Tip

  1. Please make sure you are not pointing to the root domain. If you want to configure on your root domain, please contact [email protected].

  2. Your CNAME record should point to cname.store.link.

  3. Please make sure that in the dashboard of Store.link, you have added the subdomain properly. Example: The value you should set should be “subdomain.yourwebsite.com” and not just “subdomain” or “yourwebsite.com”.
