I hope it will be helpful to answer the doubts of "how to add a site and set GoDaddy DNS on a DreamHost shared host". Next, please follow the editor to study!

Add websites and FTP accounts in the host space of DreamHost pages

After purchasing the web hosting space of DreamHost, the next step is to add new websites. Normally, the website we filled in during the purchase process is already on it, but because DreamHost is unlimited in number and capacity, we usually set up multiple websites on it, some of which do actual services, and others do tests. Here's how to add more other websites.

STEP 1

In the DreamHost administration interface, select the "Manage Domains" page and click "Add Hosting to a Domain / Sub-Domain" above.

STEP 2

Fill in the basic settings of the website, first of all, the part of the URL. If your URL is www.gtwang.org, please enter gtwang.org. In the setting of DreamHost, both URLs use the same website setting (this is also a design that bothers me).

Then choose whether you want to display www in the URL column, that is, whether the URL you want the user to see is www.gtwang.org or gtwang.org, or both. Finally, the storage path of FTP account and web page data on the host is set.

STEP 3

Set some website options, including security, site acceleration and CloudFlare CDN features, which can be used directly if you are not familiar with them.

STEP 4

Finally press the "Fully host this domain" button.

STEP 5

If the password for your FTP account has not been set, on the "Manage Users" page, click "Edit" for the corresponding account.

You can adjust the type of account here. You can set how the account is logged in. The available options are general FTP, encrypted SFTP and SSH login, and the password can be set below.

STEP 6

After the setting is complete, you can start to upload data using FTP. As for the IP address of the FTP server, it is usually the same as the web host. When setting DNS, you should be able to see the host and IP address of your own ftp.

Set up the GoDaddy DNS server to match the web host space of DreamHost

If you do not want to use its DNS server (for example, using GoDaddy's DNS server) after purchasing DreamHost's host space, then you have to make some settings to make the site connect properly. Because my habit is to use GoDaddy's DNS server, so here is a demonstration with GoDaddy, basically which DNS is more or less the same, the following are the steps to set up.

STEP 1

In the DreamHost management interface, select "Manage Domains", select the Domain where you want to set the DNS, and click the "DNS" link.

STEP 2

After opening the "DNS" settings page, there will be some Non-editable DreamHost DNS records at the bottom of the page, and transfer all the A records here to your own DNS server (such as GoDaddy).

STEP 3

Turn on the DNS zone file setting of GoDaddy and add the A record you have just checked. Of course, when you add a new record, remember to see if it conflicts with the existing record. If there is a conflict, delete the old record (or adjust it yourself).

STEP 4

After adding all the A records, you can open a browser to test the new website.

At this point, the study on "how to add a site and set up GoDaddy DNS on a DreamHost shared host" is over. I hope to be able to solve your doubts.
