Hostinger Integration
Add your AEO blog to a Hostinger site using the CNAME strategy.
Hostinger shared plans do not support mod_proxy, so the Rewrite strategy is unavailable. Use the CNAME strategy instead: point a subdomain (e.g. blog.yourdomain.com) to AEO via a DNS record in hPanel. SSL is provisioned automatically.
Configure the blog domain in AEO
In your AEO dashboard, go to Settings → Project Configuration → Blog domain. Select the CNAME method and enter the subdomain you want to use, for example blog.yourdomain.com.
Add a CNAME record in Hostinger hPanel
Log in to hPanel, go to Hosting → Manage → DNS / Name Servers → DNS Zone Editor. Add a new CNAME record:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Name / Host | blog |
| Points to | proxy.aeo.how |
| TTL | 14400 (or Auto) |
If your domain uses external nameservers (not Hostinger's), add the CNAME at your domain registrar instead. Hostinger's DNS editor only works when Hostinger nameservers are active.
Wait for DNS propagation and SSL
DNS changes typically propagate within 5–30 minutes. AEO detects the CNAME and automatically provisions an SSL certificate. Once active, blog.yourdomain.com will show your AEO blog.
Check propagation at dnschecker.org. Look for your CNAME resolving to proxy.aeo.how from multiple regions before testing in a browser.
