[Feature Request] Support for deployment using A/AAAA records & static IP addresses #5477
Description
Right now, Webstudio site deployment relies on the use of a CNAME record, which is problematic, specially when the site is being deployed at the apex/root domain. While most domain registrars or providers that offer DNS management tools are fine with using CNAME records if deploying to a subdomain, for the apex/root domain they expect an A and/or AAAA record pointing to an IP address.
This almost always means having to convince the client — or their IT Support company — to move their DNS management to Cloudflare, which can require a lot of effort, and is not always possible. In one case, it actually made us lose a bid for a job, as having "special technical requirements" made us seem 'less capable' in the client's eye.
I suspect this would not be a trivial task, but it is pretty essential for Webstudio to be able to provide site deployment using A/AAAA records (and standard IP addresses), rather than CNAME, specially for sites at the apex/root domain.
I also believe that most Web Developers know that IP addresses come at a cost, so it would not be reasonable to expect this to be provided for free — and I would gladly pay a few dollars every year to have that option.
