Domains and SSL
Webround offers maximum flexibility in choosing the web address for your project. You can choose to use a free address provided by us or connect a professional domain that you own.
Available Options
1. Webround Subdomain (Free)
Ideal for testing phases, previews, or for those who want an address without additional costs.
- Example:
yourbrand.webround.net - Advantages: Instant, free, and automatically configured with an SSL certificate.
2. Custom Domain
For a professional presence, you can connect a domain purchased from an external registrar (such as Aruba, Cloudflare, GoDaddy, etc.).
Note: At this time, Webround does not act as a registrar. The purchase, annual renewal, and cost management of the custom domain are entirely the responsibility of the user.
Technical Configuration
To connect your custom domain, you must modify the DNS settings within your registrar's management panel. The procedure requires setting two fundamental records:
A. CNAME Record for Traffic
Point your domain (or subdomain) toward our infrastructure:
- Type:
CNAME - Name/Host:
www(or your chosen subdomain) - Value/Destination:
customers.webround.com
B. SSL Certificate (HTTPS)
To ensure secure browsing and the automatic renewal of the SSL certificate, it is mandatory to configure the _acme-challenge record. Without this step, the domain will not be connected correctly.
| Record Type | Name (Host) | Data (Value) |
|---|---|---|
| CNAME | _acme-challenge | yourdomain.com.22850800d641aae8.dcv.cloudflare.com |
(Replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain name).
Propagation and Timing
Once the DNS records are saved:
- Waiting: Validation usually takes 10-15 minutes, but in some cases, global propagation can take up to 48 hours. Please wait patiently for the DNS records to propagate.
- Configuration Changes: If the domain was previously connected to another service, internet network nodes may take longer to update. This timing depends exclusively on the providers and is not controlled by Webround.
We recommend deciding on a publication date for your site and connecting your custom domain some time before the actual launch. This ensures that everything is correctly set up and ready for release at the moment of publication.
Remember that to publish a site, you will need an active subscription.
