Connecting Your GoDaddy Domain to Wix via Pointing

3 min
Connect your GoDaddy domain to Wix by updating your DNS records in GoDaddy. 
Note that when connected via pointing, Wix is unable to help you manage your DNS because the records are hosted at GoDaddy. You'll need to contact GoDaddy if you need help with your DNS.
Alternatively, you can connect your domain via name servers to manage your DNS records in your Wix account. Learn more about the differences between connection methods
Before you begin:
In order to connect your GoDaddy domain to Wix via pointing, make sure you have:
  1. Upgraded your site with a plan
  2. Added your domain to your Wix account

To connect your GoDaddy domain via pointing:
