After setting up your ClickPress account, the next important step is to add and configure your domain correctly. This involves pointing the necessary DNS records to ClickPress, making your website accessible online. You can do this by either changing your DNS management to ClickPress or creating an A record.
Through the ClickPress site management dashboard, you can easily and securely add your domain. When adding your domain name, our system will show you where it was purchased, helping you identify the registrar if you don’t remember. You can also make that check on your own by using tools like Whois.com or whatsmydns.net
