shortcut to domain mapping video
Friday, March 28, 2008 at 06:13PM I just did away with my .squarespace.com attachment. Mike's directions are excellent but if it is necessary to relisten to the video here is a written version. You still need video but hopefully it will help you fast forward to where you need to be. You do need to wait a bit while it loads before sliding the bar.
First. log into blog; go to configure; structure & style and slide down and over to domain mapping.

13:00 locate CNAMES (aliases) down 1 line is www.-------------------->click on pencil icon. make sure your are on correct line and click correct pencil) Are you sure? click OK.
14:49 CNAME Alias 15:04 points to host name; see @sign. Delete @ and type in www.squarespace.com. (Be sure or won't work) Click OK.
17:50 pause tutorial and write these #s down: 69.28.242.163 click pencil
18:45 Mike reads #s to be sure. Click OK
20:25 done with step 2 pointing. Log out of go daddy.
21:20 back to blog and domain mapping page. (If not there login at blog; go to configure;style&structure and slide down and across to domain mapping.
23:00 Step 3. Claim
23:45 enter domain name (don't use http://) simply www.yoursitename.com
24:50 Click on Add Mapping. Within dark blue suggestion box. Click on add domain without www. button
25:20 You will see 2 URLs one with no www. with a NO beside it and your primary address with www. with YES beside it.
Hope this is helpful!

When you're in uncomfortable position and have no money to get out from that point, you would need to receive the credit loans. Just because it should aid you unquestionably. I take secured loan every single year and feel myself OK because of that.
