Adding a CNAME recordDNS is the component of the Internet which converts human-readable domain names (such as example.com) into computer-readable IP addresses (such as 192.0.32.10). It does this according to DNS zone files that reside on your server and tie domain names to IP addresses. CNAME record stands for "canonical name record." This record creates an alias, allowing a querying server to continue the DNS lookup under the new name. It may take up to 48 hours to add the record. Usually it takes less than 5 minutes. You can use nslookup command line tool to test if the record has been added. cPanel hosting
