Integrating your subdomain with systeme.io

In this page, you will learn how to integrate your subdomain into systeme.io.

What you'll need:

A systeme.io account
A subdomain

Important notes:

A subdomain can only be used for one site. If the one you intend to connect to systeme.io is already used by an external site, it will no longer work after being added to systeme.io.
This guide is intended to integrate your subdomain (e.g., subdomain.domain.com). If you want to use a root domain name, you must click here.

Step 1: on your systeme.io account

1.1 Click on your profile picture, then click on Settings (1), and click on Custom Domain (2).

Then click on Add a domain (3).

1.2 In the popup that appears, enter your subdomain name subdomain.domain.com, then click Save (4).

1.3 Once the subdomain is added and saved, a new popup appears. You will see two CNAME records. These CNAMEs are the DNS records that you will add to your hosting platform to integrate your subdomain name to systeme.io.

Step 2: On your web hosting platform

Now you need to log into your hosting account to add the CNAMEs shown on the popup.

Here are the respective settings for users from the two hosting services, OVH and GoDaddy:

OVH
GoDaddy

Note: Regarding other web hosting services, contact their support team if you are unable to locate your DNS settings.

Now, once you are on your web hosting provider, you need to follow the general instructions below:

2.1 Go to your DNS zone to create new CNAMEs.

2.2 You have two CNAMEs showing up on your systeme.io account, so you will need to create two DNS records on your host and add them as follows :

First CNAME:

Host (name): subdomain

Value (target): d2dce8ts2ciq5z.cloudfront.net.

Second CNAME:

Host (name): _a41fe7898323c8ea5ebaf16307a266e6.subdomain

Value (target): _ce87b78e58e47e4cfc0ba0e4800001a2.mzlfeqexyx.acm-validations.aws.

(The records above are examples; you must add your own values).

Here is an image of the elements you need to add to your host provider:

Check your DNS RECORDS to confirm the changes using this website:

The indicators should all be green, like the example below. If not, the records have not been entered correctly. You need to review your DNS:

Notes:

It can take between 24 and 48 hours for the DNS Records to fully propagate.
Sometimes your host may not be able to record your CNAMEs due to a conflict with another DNS. At this point, you should ccontact your hosting provider to identify what the conflicting record is for and ask if it is safe to remove it.
