How to connect your Hostinger domain to SleepPRO™

Custom domains

Here is how to connect a domain bought at Hostinger, so your funnels and blog show at your own address.

First add your domain in SleepPRO™, as described in step 1 of How to connect your domain to SleepPRO™. Each domain gets its own CNAME records.

1. Add the CAA records

Before the CNAME records, add these CAA records. They let an SSL certificate (the padlock) be created for your domain and prevent CAA errors.

  1. Log in to Hostinger, click Manage next to your domain and open DNS / Nameservers.
  2. Add each of these records with Type CAA, Name @, Flag 0, and the tag and CA domain below. Click Add record after each one.
  • issue, amazon.com
  • issuewild, amazon.com
  • issue, amazontrust.com
  • issuewild, amazontrust.com
  • issue, awstrust.com
  • issuewild, awstrust.com
  • issue, amazonaws.com
  • issuewild, amazonaws.com
Leave TTL at the default 14400 (4 hours). @ means your main domain.

2. Add the CNAME records

First CNAME:

  1. In DNS / Nameservers, under Manage DNS records, choose CNAME.
  2. Enter www in Name, and the first value from SleepPRO™, ending in cloudfront.net, with the full stop at the end, in Value.
  3. Click Save.
A www CNAME record already there? Edit its target instead.

Second CNAME:

  1. Add a new record and choose CNAME.
  2. In Name, enter the code from SleepPRO™ which comes before your domain, starting with an underscore.
  3. In Value, enter the second value from SleepPRO™, ending in acm-validations.aws.
  4. Click Save.

3. Check your records

Go to dnschecker.org and check your CAA records and both CNAME records, entering the full name including your domain. All should show green. If not, review your DNS settings.

4. Send yoursleepbusiness.com to www

Add one more record: type CNAME (an ALIAS to the root), Name @, Target the same cloudfront.net value as your first CNAME. Click Add record.

DNS changes can take 24 to 48 hours to spread fully.
If Hostinger will not save a record because of a conflict, usually with the first CNAME, ask Hostinger whether the existing record is needed or can be removed.
