# Linking Your DNS Domain to ENS

Following the process of minting your .art domain, the subsequent step is to link your DNS (Domain Name System) domain to the Ethereum Name Service (ENS). This guide will lead you through the necessary steps:

### Step 1: Connect Your Wallet

First, navigate to the mint page on protocol.art and connect your wallet. This wallet connection will facilitate digital transactions for minting the ENS from your DNS.

### Step 2: Search for Your Domain

Once your wallet is connected, input the .art domain name you previously purchased into the search engine.

### Step 3: Alter the "TXT Record"

Upon locating your domain, an information window (Host/Value) will open. At this stage, you will need to alter the "TXT record" in your domain settings, specifically on the website where you originally purchased the domain. This change is critical for minting your ENS.

To adjust the "TXT Record", follow the guide below:

1. Identify the platform where you acquired the .art domain.
2. Refer to the instructions provided for that specific platform.

The process of changing the "TXT Record" varies depending on the platform, so following the specific instructions for your chosen platform is key to correctly making the alterations.
{% endhint %}

Once you have correctly modified the "TXT Record", you will be able to mint your ENS from your DNS successfully. Congratulations on expanding your digital portfolio! 🎉
