What can I do to resolve the ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS message in Webflow when using Google Domains as my website's default domain?

TL;DR
  • Set www.yourdomain.com as the default domain in Webflow if DNS points to it.
  • In Google Domains, point www to proxy-ssl.webflow.com via CNAME and root domain to Webflow's IPs via A records.
  • Remove any domain forwarding in Google Domains and publish to both www and root domains in Webflow.

The ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error in Webflow, when using Google Domains as your domain registrar, is typically caused by incorrect domain configuration—most often mismatched default domain settings or improper DNS records.

1. Make Sure Your Webflow Default Domain Matches the DNS

  • Go to Webflow Project Settings > Hosting.
  • In the Custom Domains section, identify the correct default domain:
  • If your DNS is pointing to www.yourdomain.com, then www.yourdomain.com must be set as the default domain in Webflow.
  • Do not set the root domain (e.g. yourdomain.com) as default if your DNS points to the www version.
  • Click Make default next to the correct domain (usually www.yourdomain.com).

2. Verify DNS Settings in Google Domains

  • Go to your Google Domains account and select your domain, then go to the DNS tab.
  • Under Custom resource records, ensure the following:
  • A records:
    • Point the root domain (yourdomain.com) to:
    • (a) 75.2.70.75
    • (b) 99.83.190.102
  • CNAME record:
    • www should point to proxy-ssl.webflow.com
  • Do not set forwarding from non-www to www; Webflow handles that automatically when configured correctly.

3. Remove Any Domain Forwarding in Google Domains

  • In Google Domains, click the Website tab or Forwarding section.
  • Ensure there is no web forwarding set from yourdomain.com to www.yourdomain.com or vice versa. Webflow manages this internally.

4. Publish to Both Domains in Webflow

  • Go back to Webflow Project Settings > Hosting.
  • Click Publish, and make sure you are publishing your site to both yourdomain.com and www.yourdomain.com.

Summary

To fix ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS: set www.yourdomain.com as the Webflow default domain, point www via CNAME to Webflow, A-record the root to Webflow's IPs, and remove any domain forwarding in Google Domains.
