Yahoo!SmallBusiness: A Record Instructions

Editing your A Record points your base domain (e.g. yoursite.com) to your LaunchRock page.

  1. Log in to your Yahoo! Business Control Panel 
  2. Click Manage Advanced DNS Settings
  3. Click Add Record
  4. In the Source field, enter the part of subdomain you set for your website in LaunchRock. 
    • For example, if you chose signup.yoursite.com, enter: signup 
  5. Enter 54.243.190.28 in the Destination field. 
  6. Click Submit. 
  7. Confirm your choice by clicking Submit again.

Note: To increase reliability you should create four A records by following the steps outlined above and point each one to a different LaunchRock IP address:

    • 54.243.190.28
    • 54.243.190.39
    • 54.243.190.47
    • 54.243.190.54

Congratulations! Your A record is now configured to point to LaunchRock.

If you have trouble editing your A Records, you can check out the Yahoo!SmallBusiness tutorial page Or, view a sample message to use when you contact Yahoo!SmallBusiness for further assistance.

A CNAME record is required for your hosted Landing Page. Create your Yahoo!SmallBusiness CNAME record.

Once you've modified your A records, it may take up to 72 hours for changes to update live.
