If you have bought your domain from Bluehost, you must configure your DNS settings to point the domain to yourstorename.gogeckossl.com.
Before you configure your DNS settings on Bluehost, you should have already added your custom subdomain to your TradeGecko B2B eCommerce store. You should familiarise yourself with the general instructions for modifying your DNS settings.
Configuring your DNS settings with Bluehost
1. Log in to your c-panel on Bluehost
To setup a new subdomain:
2. Click on Subdomains on the menu bar
3. In the Hostname field, enter the subdomain you want to configure. An example would be the store subdomain.
4. Click Create.
To add a CNAME record:
5. Go to DNS Zone Editor on the menu bar
6. Under Zone File Records, scroll down to the heading named Add DNS Record.

9. Under Type, select CNAME
10. In the Points To field, enter your complete TradeGecko B2B eCommerce store URL (yourstorename.gogeckossl.com)
