What is a CNAME Record?
CNAME records, or canonical name records, are a type of DNS record that is used to indicate another hostname for your domain. CNAME records are often used by domain registrars as a way to direct traffic from one domain to another.
For example, if you have a website at example.com, but you want users to access it under another URL, like www.example.com, then you would need to set up an A record and a CNAME record to point traffic from YOUR site’s old address to YOUR site’s new address.
