FAQ: Can I purchase a new domain and point the A records to my existing domain or hosting server?

Absolutely! You can purchase a new domain and easily point its A records to your existing domain or hosting server. Just follow these steps to get started:

1. Purchase the new domain and use the same nameservers as the existing domain:
   When buying your new domain, ensure that you use the same nameservers as your existing domain. This guarantees proper DNS management and smooth integration.
2. Configure the A records in the DNS platform:
   Once your new domain is registered, log in to your DNS platform and configure the A records to point to the IP address of your current hosting server. This will direct traffic from your new domain to the existing server.
3. Allow for DNS propagation:
   DNS changes may take some time to fully propagate across the internet. Typically, this process can take between 2 to 48 hours.
4. Verify the DNS configuration:
   After propagation, verify that everything is set up correctly. You can do this by entering your domain in a browser to see if it resolves to the correct site. Alternatively, use tools like IntoDNS to check and confirm the DNS pointing.
