      Hi Guys,

      We are in the process of migrating our website and are moving to: AWS/Elastic Beanstalk hosting and the only way to do a custom domain with a third-party (not Amazon) DNS Service is by setting up a CNAME that points to the EBS Instance.

      Do you think this will impact SEO performance in any way?

      Cheers.

        Nope - as long as the DNS resolves to the website properly, doesn't matter whether it's via A Record or Cname.

        Many hosts are doing this now so that the DNS isn't dependent on the IP address in case the host needs to change that for emergency, security, or server change reasons.

        Paul
