AdSense Domain Parking (AdSense For Domains) and Dynadot Settings

Posted on | December 29, 2009 | 4 Comments

I’m bringing back an old post since I’ve received 3 e-mails in the last month or so regarding AdSense for Domains (Google’s own personal domain parking system) and how to get the settings to work with the registrar Dynadot.

Dated exactly 1 year and 10 days ago:

Setting Up AdSense For Domains With Dynadot – Google AdSense Parking Help

Quick and Sloppy instructions:

  1. Find domain in Account Area
  2. Use “Dynadot DNS” settings
  3. Domain Record: Type A, IP/Target: 216.239.32.21
  4. Subdomain Records (optional): www subdomain, CNAME type, Target host: pub-xxxxxxxxx.afd.ghs.google.com (where pub-xxxxxxxxx is your unique ID listed on the AdSense setup page)
  5. Make sure to click Use Dynadot DNS
