Doodlekit™ Online Free Website Builder

If you have already registered your domain name it's very easy to set it up to work with Doodlekit.

WARNING: This will point everything associated with your domain name to Doodlekit's servers, including E-Mail

Step 1

Log in to your domain name account, and find where you can edit the Nameservers. Use the following nameservers.

Nameserver 1 (Primary): ns1.doodlekit.com
Nameserver 2 (Secondary): ns2.doodlekit.com

Step 2

Log in to your Doodlekit site and click on Settings then Advanced from the Admin section. Make sure that your domain name is correct in the "Domain Name" field.

These changes can sometimes take up to 24 hours to take effect.

Detailed Instructions For:

• GoDaddy

Is there an IP address we can use if we want to point the domain to Doodlekit, but keep email with our current service provider?

We prefer that you not use an IP because it may change at some point. You can however create a CNAME that points to doodlekit.com.

So just to be clear: if I point my domain to your server, I will not be able to use e-mail from my current hosting company, right? I'd have to use whatever you provide, yes?

Couldn't I just optimize the SEO settings for my hosted domain, then redirect it to the doddlekit domain?

Jeremy,

If you want to keep your current hosts email you can email your MX record settings and I'll set it up for you.

This cannot be done with a free account/site: It is only do-able with paid doodlekit accounts, correct?

That is correct.

Thanks for confirming that Heath.
