Adding a Custom Domain

Connect your own domain to your Berican Labs site. We handle SSL certificates automatically.

1Add Your Domain

Connect a custom domain to your site:

  1. Go to Site Settings > Domains
  2. Click "Add Custom Domain"
  3. Enter your domain name (e.g., example.com)
  4. Click "Add Domain"

You'll see DNS records to configure at your domain registrar.

2Configure DNS

Add these DNS records at your domain registrar:

For root domain (example.com)

Type: A

Name: @ (or leave blank)

Value: 76.76.21.21

For www subdomain

Type: CNAME

Name: www

Value: cname.bericanlabs.com

3SSL Certificate

SSL certificates are provisioned automatically:

  • Certificate issued within minutes of DNS verification
  • Auto-renews before expiration
  • Free Let's Encrypt certificates
  • HTTPS enforced by default

No configuration needed - just add your domain and we handle the rest.

4Subdomains

Add subdomains the same way:

  1. Click "Add Custom Domain"
  2. Enter the full subdomain (e.g., blog.example.com)
  3. Add a CNAME record pointing to cname.bericanlabs.com

You can add unlimited subdomains to your site.

5Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions:

Domain stuck on "Pending"

DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate. Check your DNS records are correct.

SSL certificate error

Ensure your domain is pointing to Berican Labs before we can issue an SSL certificate.

Redirect loop

Disable any SSL/redirect settings at your domain registrar - Berican Labs handles this.
