Record Setup

Use a simple and consistent record strategy.

Recommended workflow

Point root domain to hosting IP with A record.
Point www with CNAME to root domain (recommended).
Avoid duplicate www A and CNAME records together.
Keep TTL moderate during setup and migrations.

Validation

Confirm both hostnames resolve and serve same site.

Recommended workflow

Check DNS resolution for root and www using public resolvers.
Test both URLs with HTTPS and redirect consistency.
Verify canonical URL behavior in application settings.
