If you'd like to host your site at Zyro and create additional subdomains or domain redirections on your own, we highly recommend using Cloudflare.
Adding your domain to Cloudflare
1. Create a free Cloudflare account.
2. Click on Add site and insert your domain:
3. On your domain provider's website, find the nameservers settings. Delete the current nameservers and insert the ones provided by Cloudflare. You can find more detailed instructions here: Change your authoritative nameservers

Example:
4. Open the SSL/TLS tab and select the option Full:
Finally, give the connection process some time to complete – your website will be available online within 24 hours 🚀
