1. Log in to your network solutions control panel

2. Goto Domains / Manage Domains

3. Select your domain by checking the box next to it and click "Edit DNS"

4. Under "Advanced DNS Manager" click "Manage DNS Records"


NOTE - You are unable to add your CNAME records with Network Solutions Default A Records in place so you must first scrap your A Records. If something goes horribly wrong, you can reset to default afterwords.


5. Edit your A records and Delete @none, * and WWW records

6. Now return to the "Advanced DNS Manager"

7. Under "Host Aliases" click "add/edit"

8. Important! Under Alias, in an empty box put www | Leave the first drop down blank | Select the second radio button | In the Other Host box enter your xxxxx.myshopify.com (Note there is no . at the end like regular CNAMES) Important! Change xxxxx in xxxxx.myshopify.com to your actual store name...

9. You can also add another CNAME Alias for * if you are feeling frisky. Just repeat the steps above replacing www with *

10. Now click go

11. Now go to your Shopify store and edit your DNS & Domain name settings

12. Click "I would like to claim another Hostname… "

13. Enter your domain ie. www.myphatstore.com


May take a while to kick in so be patient.
