Domain FAQs

​
Can I use a domain I already own with my Bolt project?

Yes. You can connect domains from third-party registrars. See the Connect your domain section above for step-by-step instructions.

​
My domain is still showing Resolve DNS issues after 24 hours

If you’ve added your domain name in Bolt and you are still seeing Resolve DNS issues, it is likely that there is a problem with how your registrar is pointing the domain. Confirm that the information provided by Bolt on the DNS configuration screen is accurately pointed to your registrar’s end.

​
I don’t know how to enter my DNS information with my registrar

Most registrars have support departments that will help you point the domain you have registered with them. If you provide a screenshot of the information on the DNS configurations screen with your ALIAS record value or A record value, they should be able to help you.

​
How do I stop a domain I’ve purchased from auto-renewing?

Contact Bolt customer support if you want to stop a domain from renewing.

​
How do I change the DNS settings on a domain I’ve purchased through Bolt?

See Add a DNS record for information on adding your own records. Note that you cannot change system records.

​
Can I move a domain purchased on one project to another Bolt project?

For help with transferring domains between Bolt projects, contact Bolt customer support

​
I’ve chosen to continue publishing my projects to Netlify rather than switch to Bolt hosting, where should I buy and manage my domains?

If you’d prefer to keep publishing your site to Netlify rather than switch to Bolt hosting, that’s no problem! Continue to manage and purchase new domains through Netlify as well.
