Step 1: Buy your domain:
If you don’t have a domain name yet, you can buy one from a domain registrar like GoDaddy, Namecheap, or Shopify domains.
Step 2: Log into your Shopify admin:
Log in to your Shopify admin by going to dinwebshop.myshopify.com/admin and entering your credentials.
Step 3: Go to domain settings:
In your Shopify admin, navigate to “Settings” > “Domains.”
Step 4: Add your domain:
Click “Add your existing domain” and enter the domain name you purchased in the field provided.
Step 5: Verify your domain:
Shopify will ask you to verify that you own the domain name you’re trying to connect. This can be done by adding a CNAME record or a TXT record to your domain registrar.
Step 5: Verify your domain:
Once your domain has been verified, you can connect it to your Shopify online store by clicking the “Connect domain” or “Connect domain” button.
Step 7: Set up your primary domain:
Once your domain has been connected, you can set it as your primary domain by clicking the “Set as primary” or “Set as primary” button.
Step 8: Test your Online Store:
In your web browser, go to your domain name to make sure that your Shopify online store displays correctly under the new domain.
Step 9: Set Up Email for Your Domain (optional):
If you want to use an email address with your domain name (e.g. info@ditdom æ ne.dk), you can set up email accounts through your domain registrar or a third-party email provider such as Google Workspace (formerly G Suite).
By following these steps, you can easily connect your domain to your Shopify online store and achieve a professional and cohesive online presence for your brand.
