Create CNAME Entry for Branded Returns Page in Bluehost
Bluehost is a web hosting company that enables businesses to create custom domains. Get a custom domain for your branded returns page and deliver a personalized post-purchase experience to shoppers.
Note that enabling SSL is mandatory due to the new Cloudflare policy. So, if you are already using a custom domain, make sure the SSL is activated at your end as well for uninterrupted and delightful experience. For the same, connect with our support team now :)
Bluehost supports two interface options Legacy and Rock. While both the interfaces are quite similar, the location of certain settings may vary between the two.
Let us suppose you wish to set the custom returns page URL as https://returns.xyz.com. So, the value of the host filed will be “returns”.
Go to Bluehost > Domains > Zone editor > Select a domain from the drop-down menu > Add DNS Record section
Consider www.xyz.com as your website and enter details as follows
Host: @ (for example returns)
Points to: domains.myreturnscenter.com
TTL: Leave it unchanged
The custom domain will be- https://returns.xyz.com
Add Record
The changes will be brought into effect in 48 hours.
