To redirect subdomains from Google Domains to specific URLs on your Webflow website, follow these steps:
- Access your Google Domains account and sign in.
- Find the domain you want to manage and click on it.
- In the "Website" section, click on the "DNS" tab.
- Under the "Custom resource records" section, click on the "Add" button to create a new record.
- Select the "CNAME" type from the dropdown menu.
- In the "Name" field, enter the subdomain you want to redirect (e.g.,
subdomain.yourdomain.com
). - In the "Data" field, enter the Webflow project's subdomain (e.g.,
www.webflow.com
). - Set the "TTL" (Time to Live) to the desired value (e.g., 1 hour).
- Save the settings.
Now, the subdomain subdomain.yourdomain.com
will be redirected to the Webflow project's URL www.webflow.com
. It's important to note that the DNS changes might take some time to propagate, so the redirection may not be instantaneous.
Please note that this method is specifically for redirecting subdomains using Google Domains. If you have a different domain registrar or hosting provider, the steps may vary, so be sure to consult their documentation or support resources for specific instructions.
