Domains
Custom domains
Use your own domain for your Zanode app
Overview
Every Zanode app gets a free *.zano.click subdomain. You can also add your own custom domain.
Add a custom domain
Go to Domains
Navigate to your project → Domains.
Add domain
Click Add Domain and enter your domain (e.g., example.com).
Configure DNS
Add the DNS records shown in your domain registrar.
Verify
Click Verify once DNS has propagated.
DNS configuration
For root domains (example.com)
Add an A record pointing to the Zanode server:
| Type | Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
| A | @ | (shown in dashboard) |
The server IP address is displayed in your project’s Domains page when you add a custom domain.
For subdomains (app.example.com)
Add a CNAME record:
| Type | Name | Value |
|---|---|---|
| CNAME | app | proxy.zanode.co.za |
SSL certificates
SSL certificates are provisioned automatically once your domain is verified. This typically takes 1-5 minutes.
Your app will be accessible via HTTPS:
https://example.com✓https://app.example.com✓
We automatically redirect HTTP to HTTPS for all custom domains.
Multiple domains
You can add multiple domains to a single project:
example.comwww.example.comapp.example.com
Set one as the primary domain — other domains will redirect to it.
Troubleshooting
DNS not propagating
DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate globally. You can check propagation at dnschecker.org.
SSL certificate pending
If your certificate is stuck in “pending”:
- Verify DNS records are correct
- Wait a few minutes and refresh
- Contact support if the issue persists
