What is the issue I'm encountering when trying to paste my A records into Google Domains for my Webflow website?

TL;DR
  • Add each Webflow A record (75.2.70.75 and 99.83.190.102) separately in Google Domains under DNS > Custom Records using type A and name @.
  • Remove any existing conflicting A records, avoid entering both IPs in one field, and verify the domain is connected in Webflow Hosting settings.

You're likely encountering an issue because Google Domains enforces strict formatting rules for DNS records, and Webflow requires two specific A records that must be entered correctly.

1. Verify the A Records from Webflow

Webflow provides two A records that must be added to your domain's DNS settings:

  • (a) 75.2.70.75
  • (b) 99.83.190.102

Make sure you’re copying them exactly and not including any extra characters or spaces.

2. Remove Conflicting A Records in Google Domains

  • Go to Google Domains > DNS > Custom Records.
  • Remove any existing A records with the same name (typically @) that conflict with the values Webflow provides.
  • Google Domains doesn't support multiple A records under the same name in a single form. You must add each A record separately:
  • For Name: Enter @
  • For Type: Select A
  • For TTL: Use the default or a custom value (e.g., 3600)
  • For Data: First enter 75.2.70.75, save, then repeat the process for 99.83.190.102.

3. Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Pasting both IPs in a single field. Google Domains requires one A record per IP address.
  • Leaving the name field blank. Use @ to indicate the root domain.
  • Using the wrong record type. Ensure you're selecting A records, not CNAME or AAAA.

4. Ensure Domain is Connected in Webflow

  • In Webflow > Project Settings > Hosting, confirm the domain is added and has “Connected” next to the A records once propagation completes (can take up to 24–48 hours).

Summary

You're likely encountering issues because Google Domains requires each A record to be added separately, and Webflow needs two distinct A records: 75.2.70.75 and 99.83.190.102. Double-check formatting, ensure no conflicting records exist, and confirm changes are saved.
