# How to connect your custom domain to Little Big Shop

When you create an online store with Little Big Shop, you get a default [name].littlebig.shop address.

Connecting your own domain (like yourbusiness.com.au) makes your Little Big Shop store look more professional and easy to find.

### Step-by-step guide

From the Admin dashboard, navigate to the 'Shop settings' on the left-hand side. Click on 'Settings' and then 'Shop details'.

Navigate to the section that says 'Connect your own domain name'.

- Switch the toggle to activate this feature
- Read the information below to determine which is the best option for you and follow the steps to set up your custom domain

### Part One

If you have not registered your own domain name (e.g., yourbusiness.com.au), check out these reputable suppliers:

- GoDaddy
- Google Domains
- Namecheap
- Crazy Domains
- VentraIP

Choose from the following options:

### Option 1: Connect your root domain

If you want your **root domain** to point to Little Big Shop (eg. https://yourbusiness.com.au)

**Type**

A

**Name/Host**

@

@

**IP Address**

166.117.43.116

166.117.164.152

If you want to add www.yourdomain.com.au then add a CNAME that points to your root domain

**Type**

CNAME

**Name/Host**

www

**Value**

yourbusiness.com.au

### Option 2: Connect a subdomain

If you have a website and want to point a subdomain to Little Big Shop (eg. http://shop.yourbusiness.com.au)

Examples: shop.yourbusiness.com.au

**Type**

CNAME

**Name/Host**

shop

**Value**

littlebig.shop

If you're unsure how to do this, contact your domain hosting provider for assistance.

### Part two

- Click on 'Settings' and 'Shop details'
- Navigate to the 'Connect your own domain name' and switch the toggle to turn this on (it should be orange)
- There is a field under 'Your own domain name'. Add your domain in the custom domain here (eg. **shop.yourbusiness.com.au**). You do not have to add https://
- Click the 'Save' button on the top right hand side to apply your changes

### Tips

The section labelled “Website details” cannot be edited. It contains the following:
