Set up your domain with GoDaddy

If you have a domain from GoDaddy, then you need to reconfigure your DNS settings to point the domain at your Shopify store. You can set up your domain automatically using GoDaddy Connect, or set it up manually by changing the DNS settings in your GoDaddy Domain Manager.
