How do I connect my custom domain to my community?

I just created my community and I want to run it on community.mycoolapp.com. What are the exact DNS records I need to set up, and how long does SSL provisioning take?

Point an A record from community.mycoolapp.com to 76.76.21.21, then add a CNAME for www if you want the www subdomain too. Starthub provisions your SSL automatically, usually within a few minutes of the DNS change propagating.

Why not build it yourself?

We get it. You're builders. But here's why that instinct might cost you.

Infrastructure overhead

Auth, search, moderation, spam, SEO, it adds up fast. That's weeks of engineering before you ship anything.

Maintenance tax

Communities never stop needing work. Updates, fixes, moderation, it's a never-ending commitment.

Time-to-value

Months of development time vs. minutes to launch. The math is simple.

Opportunity cost

Every hour on community infra is an hour away from your core product.
