Part 2 - Connecting your NameCheap Domain to show AutoFunnel sites.

Step 1: Sign into your NameCheap account to view the domains you own.

Step 2: Navigate to your Domain List;

Step 3: Click Manage to see your DNS settings.

Step 4: Click Advanced;

Step 5: then Add New Record.

Step 6: Select CNAME as the record type and enter your host, value, and TTL.

To use a root domain, enter the following:
1. Enter your domain with www. into AutoFunnel. (Step 3)
2. Create a CNAME record that directs your 'naked' root domain to the version with "www."
    Host: @
        the "@" is the bare, naked domain you bought without any prefixes
        i.e. "autofunnel.ai"
    Value: www.[yourdomain.com]
        this is the standard version of your domain
        i.e. “www.autofunnel.ai”
    TTL: 30 min
        as low as possible
        this is how soon your domain info will be updated.
3. Now, create a CNAME that sends your domain to AutoFunnel.
    Host: www
        remember, we forwarded the bare domain to the 'www' version.
    Value: live.autofunnel.ai
        this CNAME should direct to our URL so you can see your page
    TTL: 30 min
        as low as possible
        this is how soon your domain info will be updated.

To use a subdomain, enter the following:
1. Enter your domain with the subdomain into AutoFunnel. (Step 3)
2. Now, create a CNAME that sends your subdomain to AutoFunnel.
    Name: [subdomain]
        make sure to enter the exact subdomain you entered in AutoFunnel
        i.e. “help"
    Value: live.autofunnel.ai
        you want the CNAME to direct to our URL so we can see your pages!
    TTL: 30 min
        as low as possible
        this is how soon your domain info will be updated.

Step 7: Save all DNS changes on NameCheap.

Step 8: Return to the AutoFunnel tab and click "I've done this."

That's it, you're done! The domain syncing can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 48 hours, so please be patient.
