Binding AWS VPS IP Address with Hostinger Subdomain

Bind AWS IP with Hostinger Sub-Domain

To bind an AWS IP address to a Hostinger subdomain, you need to update the DNS records of your Hostinger domain to point to the AWS IP address. Here’s a step-by-step guide to achieve this:

Step1: Find the AWS IP Address

If you have an EC2 instance, you can find the IP address in the AWS Management Console under the "Instances" section. Note the Public IPv4 address.

Step2: Access Hostinger DNS Management

Log in to your Hostinger account.

Go to the "Domains" section and select the domain for which you want to configure the subdomain.

Navigate to the "DNS Zone" or "DNS Settings" for that domain.

Step3: Create a Subdomain and Point to AWS IP

In the DNS settings, create a new A record.

Set the "Name" or "Host" field to your subdomain (e.g., subdomain.yourdomain.com).

Set the "Points to" or "Value" field to your AWS IP address.

Set the TTL (Time to Live) to the default value (e.g., 14400 seconds or 4 hours).

Step4: Save Changes

Save the DNS record. It may take some time (usually up to 24-48 hours) for DNS changes to propagate.

Here’s an example of what the DNS record might look like:

Type	Name	Value	TTL
A	subdomain	AWS_IP_ADDRESS	14400

Example:

If your subdomain is api.yourdomain.com and your AWS IP address is 3.123.456.78, the A record will be:

Type	Name	Value	TTL
A	api.yourdomain.com	3.123.456.78	14400

Additional Configuration

If you also want to use HTTPS for your subdomain, you'll need to set up an SSL certificate. You can use services like Let's Encrypt or AWS Certificate Manager for free SSL certificates.

Testing

Once the DNS changes have propagated, you can test the setup by accessing your subdomain in a web browser. It should point to your AWS server.
