Posted by faq on December 15th, 2007
You may follow the steps hereafter to set your own domain for your Podbean Podcast site:
- Register a domain with a domain registrar, such as, www.godaddy.com, www.easydns.com.
- Host your domain with a DNS service provider, such as, www.easydns.com (recommended), www.zoneedit.com .
- In your domain registar account(e.g. your godaddy account), set your domain to use your DNS service provider Name Servers. You may find EasyDNS name servers at here.
-
In your DNS service account, set an Alias to map your domain to your podbean site. For example, your domain name is mydomain.com and your Podbean username is demo. If you want to use the URL http://www.mydomain.com for your Podcast, you can set an Alias (CNAME) record as:
www (map to) username.podbean.com.
In easydns.com, you can set an Alias as hereafter:
- Set your own domain in your Podbean account by clicking “Set Own Domain” link in the “Account” page.
- It will take several hours to 48 hours for your DNS to be propogated through the Internet.
- You may also set web forwarding to forward your domain to your Podbean site. This will direct your domain site vistors to your Podbean site, however, the url will still be shown as the Podbean site. Only above domain alias setting will change the URL to be your own domain one.
