-To use a custom domain for your Pages project, [add a custom domain](/pages/configuration/custom-domains/) that is the same custom domain as your currently deployed Vercel application. When Pages finishes the initial deploy of your site, you will need to delete the Vercel application to start sending requests to Cloudflare Pages.
+Next, connect a [custom domain](/pages/configuration/custom-domains/) to your Pages project. This domain should be the same one as your currently deployed Vercel application.

+### Change domain nameservers
 
-Cloudflare does not provide IP addresses for your Pages project because we do not require `A` or `AAAA` records to link your domain to your project. Instead, Cloudflare uses `CNAME` records.
+In most cases, you will want to [add your domain to Cloudflare](/dns/zone-setups/full-setup/setup/).
 
-For more details, refer to [Custom domains](/pages/configuration/custom-domains/).
+This does involve changing your domain nameservers, but simplifies your Pages setup and allows you to use an apex domain for your project (like `example.com`).

-## Cleaning up your old application and assigning the domain
+The next steps vary based on if you [added your domain to Cloudflare](#change-domain-nameservers):
 
-In your DNS settings for your domain, make sure that you have updated the CNAME record for your domain from Vercel to Cloudflare Pages. With your DNS record updated, requests will go to your Pages application.
+- **Added to Cloudflare**: Cloudflare will set everything up for you automatically and your domain will move to an `Active` status.
+- **Not added to Cloudflare**: You need to [update some DNS records](/pages/configuration/custom-domains/#add-a-custom-subdomain) at your DNS provider to finish your setup.
 
-By completing this guide, you have successfully migrated your Vercel project to Cloudflare Pages.
+## Delete your Vercel app

+After Pages finishes the initial deploy of your site and you have your custom domain set up, delete the Vercel application to start sending requests to Cloudflare Pages.

+## Troubleshooting

+Cloudflare does not provide IP addresses for your Pages project because we do not require `A` or `AAAA` records to link your domain to your project. Instead, Cloudflare uses `CNAME` records.
