Connect your own domain

Want your business page to live at your own web address — like joespizza.com— instead of the default link? It takes about 10 minutes, plus a little waiting time while the internet updates. You'll work in two places: your Everything Local dashboard and your GoDaddy account.

Before you start

  • You need a Local Pro subscription (custom domains are a Local Pro feature).
  • You need a domain. No domain yet? See Buying a domain at the bottom.
1

Start the connection in Everything Local

Log in and go to your Dashboard → Store Settings → Custom domain.

Type your domain (e.g. joespizza.com) and click Connect.

You'll see a DNS record with three values — a Type, a Name, and a Value. Keep that tab open; you'll copy these into GoDaddy next.

Always use what your screen shows. It will be one of:

• Plain domain (joespizza.com): Type A, Name @, Value 76.76.21.21

• Also add, so www works too: Type CNAME, Name www, Value cname.vercel-dns.com

2

Add the record in GoDaddy

In a new tab, sign in at godaddy.com → your name → My Products.

Find your domain and click DNS (or Manage DNS), then Add New Record.

Fill it in to match what Everything Local showed you (Type, Name, Value), leave TTL at its default, and click Save.

⚠️ Delete GoDaddy's default "parked" records first. A new GoDaddy domain comes with a default A record (Name @) and a CNAME (Name www) that point to a parking page. Use the trash/delete icon to remove both — if you leave them, your new records conflict and the domain won't work. Then add the records above.

Tell Everything Local you're done

Back in the Custom domain box, click Check status.

✅ Live means you're done — visit your domain to see your page.

⏳ Pending is normal. DNS changes can take a few minutes up to a few hours to spread. Grab a coffee and click Check status again later.

Buying a domain (if you don't have one yet)

  1. Go to godaddy.com and search the name you want.
  2. Pick an available one → Add to Cart → Continue to Cart.
  3. You can skip most add-ons (domain privacy is a nice-to-have but optional).
  4. Checkout, create your account, and pay — then follow Steps 1–3 above.
