Platforms like Wix and Shopify offer fast setup, sleek templates, and built-in e-commerce tools — perfect for small businesses and startups. But when it comes to connecting your domain, things can get tricky.
At HostMidas, we help you bridge that gap. Whether you registered your domain with us or transferred it in, we’ll make sure it points exactly where it should — without breaking your email or DNS setup.
What Does “Pointing” a Domain Mean?
Pointing means updating your DNS records (not nameservers) so your domain loads your Wix or Shopify site, while keeping control of your email and other services.
✅ For Wix:
- A Record →
185.230.63.107 - CNAME Record →
pointing.wixdns.net
✅ For Shopify:
- A Record →
23.227.38.65 - CNAME Record →
shops.myshopify.com
Common Mistakes to Avoid
| Mistake | Why It’s a Problem |
|---|---|
| Changing nameservers | You lose control of email and DNS settings |
| Forgetting MX records | Email stops working |
| Incorrect TTL values | DNS propagation takes longer |
| Missing CNAME setup | Your site won’t load with “www” |
