GoDaddy DNS setup for BlogPath at /blog

Create the CNAME in GoDaddy so BlogPath can serve your blog from yourdomain.com/blog.

What you are configuring

  • Record type: CNAME
  • Host: blog (or whatever hostname you added in BlogPath)
  • Points to: proxy.blogpath.io
  • TTL: 1 hour (or the lowest allowed)

Steps in GoDaddy DNS

  1. Log in to GoDaddy → My Products → click DNS next to your domain.
  2. In Records, click Add.
  3. Type: CNAME.
  4. Host: blog (use @ only if you intend to flatten apex, which GoDaddy does not natively support—prefer a subdomain).
  5. Points to: proxy.blogpath.io.
  6. TTL: choose 1 hour or lower.
  7. Save.

Apex note

GoDaddy does not support true CNAME at apex. Keep your apex A/ALIAS pointing to your main site. Use a blog subdomain for BlogPath and set the fallback origin in BlogPath to your main site so non-blog paths keep working.

Verify

Return to BlogPath → DNS checkVerify. If it fails, make sure there is no conflicting A record for the same host.
