(my first post!) Hey all, I'm building a little website and want a landing page and a main website where I could host other content. I would keep it all on Carrd, but it seems to be loading pretty slowly because of all the content it's secretly containing when it loads.
The solution I've seen is to have your landing page on your main domain like [domain].com and then have your other content on a subdomain like blog.[domain].com.
I thought this would be simple, but I can't figure out how to host a landing page on Carrd and the rest of the website elsewhere. If it helps, my domain was bought on namecheap and I have bluehost as well.
Is it possible to have a subdomain while using Carrd as the main domain?
Thanks!
Hi Brian,
Yes, it's possible. You should add two "A" DNS records for your domain which point to different web servers: "@" is for Carrd and "blog" is for other server. Example:
Where 3600 is time-to-live of a cached record, in a common case use a default value which is suggested by your admin panel.
Thank you! I still seem to be having some trouble getting this to work, but this was a big help to starting to figure it out.
