Website
Can I use my own domain name for my club website?
Yes. Every site has its own yourclub.blindvalet.site address, and you can also connect a domain you already own, such as poker.myclub.com or myclub.com.
Connecting your domain
- In Website, open the domain settings and enter your domain.
- Blind Valet shows you the DNS records to create. Add them at your registrar, the company where you bought the domain.
- Click Check DNS. Changes can take up to an hour to propagate, so check again later if the records aren't found yet.
| You enter | Record to create |
|---|---|
A subdomain, e.g. poker.myclub.com | One CNAME record pointing to sites.blindvalet.site |
A bare domain, e.g. myclub.com | An A record for myclub.com and a CNAME record for www.myclub.com, with the values shown in the app |
For a bare domain, visitors use the www address and the bare domain redirects to it.
Once the records are verified and the site has an active subscription, Blind Valet connects the domain and sets up its security certificate (https) for you. Your blindvalet.site address keeps working and redirects to your own domain.
Don't have a domain yet? Buy one from any registrar, then come back and enter it. The app links to a registrar if you need one.
A domain can only be connected to one website at a time. You can remove it at any time, and your site goes back to its blindvalet.site address.
