Custom Domain, DNS Routing & Automated SSL Setup
Learn how to route your custom domain (e.g., www.yourdomain.com) to Nimbica Anycast edge servers with automated SSL certificate provisioning.
DNS Routing Architecture
To deliver static pages from your custom domain with sub-second TTFB globally, point your domain's DNS records to Nimbica's Anycast edge network.
Recommended DNS Configuration
For subdomain setups (e.g. www.yourdomain.com), create a CNAME record pointing to cname.nimbica.com. For root/apex domains, use ALIAS, ANAME, or Cloudflare CNAME Flattening.
Automated SSL / TLS Certificates
Nimbica automatically provisions and renews free Let's Encrypt TLS 1.3 certificates for all verified custom domains. Certificates are typically active within 60 seconds of DNS record propagation.
📋 Verified Execution Steps (3 Total Steps)
In your Nimbica Dashboard, select your website, navigate to Domains ➔ Add Custom Domain, and enter your domain name (e.g. www.yoursite.com).
Log into your DNS provider (Cloudflare, AWS Route 53, Namecheap, GoDaddy, etc.) and create a CNAME record for "www" pointing to cname.nimbica.com.
Click "Verify DNS" in the Nimbica Dashboard. Once verified, SSL certificates are provisioned automatically.
