      In Landingi, you can publish your landing page to your own subdomain. A free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate will be automatically added for every correctly installed subdomain.


      This guide will show you how to set up a domain registered with OVH.

      Access the DNS management zone in OVH

      1. Log in to your OVH control panel, find your domain on the list, and click on it.

      2. Go to the DNS zone.

      Set up the DNS records

      Now you need to configure the DNS records, select the type of your subdomain.

      Before you start, read about www subdomain redirection.

      1. Remove the two default TXT records for the www subdomain with the values "3|welcome" and "1|www.domain.com". Check both pages of the record list.

      2. Add two A records: one for your root domain and one for the www subdomain. If you already have these records, edit (Modify) their values.

      3. Copy and paste the following values:

      • Remember to leave the Sub-domian field empty for the first record.
      Type A

      Sub-domain:
      leave empty
      Target:
      157.53.227.1
      Type A

      Sub-domain:
      www
      Target:
      157.53.227.1

      4. Save changes.

      1. Add an A record for the subdomain you want to add to Landingi. If you already have such a record, edit (Modify) it.

      2. Copy and paste the following values:

      Type A

      Sub-domain:
      your subdomain name
      Target:
      157.53.227.1

      3. Save changes.

      Finish the configuration in Landingi

      When you're ready, go back to Landingi and click on Confirm/Finish.

      Once you've added the subdomain to your account, our system will verify whether the DNS redirections have been done correctly. During this time, an hourglass icon will be visible next to the domain with the information that the domain is being verified. Usually, the domain will be active a few hours after adding it, but the total waiting time depends on the number of domains in our system waiting in the queue to install the certificate. We will email you when the domain is installed correctly.

      A green globe icon indicates an active domain. You can assign it to your landing page.

      In some cases, you have to wait between 1 and 24 hours for the records to propagate.
