After finishing the subdomain pointing, don't forget to register the domain inside GreatPages, following our tutorial on How to Connect a Domain on GreatPages.


If you choose to use the WWW subdomain, we recommend also creating an A type record as a complement so that your LP can be accessed without the www as well. To do so, click here to access our tutorial on how to do it.
