# Set up a forwarding rule on GoDaddy

> Configure a URL forwarding rule on GoDaddy to redirect traffic to your Kajabi site.

## Overview

Have you set up your custom domain on Kajabi using the "Create subdomain for Kajabi site" option? Did you choose to connect a subdomain with "www" in the URL? You'll likely want to set up a forwarding rule through your domain registrar to redirect the URL without "www" to the same site.

## Add a forwarding rule in GoDaddy

<Note>
  **Note:** The redirect process described in this guide only applies if you've connected your custom domain using the "Create subdomain for Kajabi site" option in your Domain Settings. If you've connected your domain using the "[Connect domain to Kajabi](/articles/website/domains/connect-a-custom-domain)" option, there is no need to set up a forwarding rule.
</Note>

First, check that your domain is set up properly in Kajabi:

1. Open the **Settings** tab from your Dashboard.
2. Then, click **Domain**.
3. Your domain should state that your **custom domain is connected**:

<div className="w-full aspect-video">
  <iframe src="https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/6mj8a2odrd" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowFullScreen className="w-full h-full" />
</div>

Next, you will need to log into your GoDaddy account to access your DNS records:

1. Log into your GoDaddy account and choose **Domains**.
2. Then, locate and select the Domain you want to add a forwarding rule for.
3. Click the `…` and choose **Manage DNS**.
4. Scroll Down to the **Forwarding** section and choose **Add** next to the Domain section.
5. Select **https\://**.
6. Enter **[www.yoursite.com](http://www.yoursite.com)** (specific to whatever your domain is called).
7. Choose **Permanent (301).**
8. Select **Forward Only.**
9. Check the box that reads, "**Update my Nameservers and DNS settings**."
10. Press **Save.**
11. Enter your URL in your browser to test if the forwarding rule was added correctly:

<div className="w-full aspect-video">
  <iframe src="https://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/2pzky9zr78" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowFullScreen className="w-full h-full" />
</div>
