After you have your new domain name (based on Acquia’s domain name registrar recommendations), point your domain name or subdomain name to your website running on Site Factory.
Note
If your Site Factory subscription already has a custom domain
name, you must add a 301 redirect for any extra domain names you add to the
.htaccess file for your website’s codebase. Not implementing the
redirect may cause HTTP 404 Not Found error messages to be cached for
your new custom domain.
To point your domain name to a website, use one of the following procedures, depending on whether you are adding a domain to a website or a site collection, and the method supported by your domain name registrar:
Adding a domain to a website
Adding a domain to a site collection
Be patient, as this step can take up to 24 hours for DNS entries to propagate across the Internet.
