To configure GoDaddy Custom Domains with GitHub Pages

Joining a customized domainname to your GitHub page is quite a simple job, but different ressources may be more or less bewildering. The following are the procedures you need to follow to help you hoist your GitHub page with a customizedomainname. So if you want to know how to use your website and how to have it hosted on GitHub, take a look at the following step-by-step guide.

Purchase a GoDaddy website. Navigate to your GitHub page Repository and click the preference button in the top right hand corner. Click the GitHub page button. Navigate to the home directory of your Repository and generate a CNAME for it. Enter either yourwebsitename.com or www.yourwebsitename.com. in the appropriate field. I' d suggest to try yourwebsitename.com and if that doesn't work, try repeating the www Tutorial. Just make a CNAME only!

When repeating the workshop, remove the old CNAME image from your computer and make a new one (or just modify the CNAME image content). CNAME images also have no extensions. Next, insert an A-Name data set with the Host@ that points to the IP of your GitHub page and store the data set.

Next, append a CNAME entry with www hosting and point to the GitHub page of your site. Store the data file. If the above mentioned operations do not work, you can try to configure them to forward to your GitHub page. Once you have chosen the redirection option, your customized domains will not be valid for your GitHub page, but will be redirected to your GitHub page.

Test your URIs now to make sure they work properly. Open your terminals and use the digit function to find out the IPs of your GigHub page and your user-defined domains. When you have set up your domains properly, your gif hub page and your customized domains URL's will point to the same IP number.

And if you still don't get the set-up, please get in touch with GoDaddy and have a look at this article from GitHub here.
