(1) Google
To Redirect your domain to your website.
You will need to be sure to complete the setup on the google account side.- Go to your GoDaddy Domain Manager and access that domain's DNS.
- Create a new CNAME entry.
- Enter the subdomain name, for example, "www".
- Type in the HOST name "ghs.googlehosted.com", this will point your URL to your Google site.
- Create a forwarding command below the DNS listings in this GoDaddy account
- Forward your domain to itself. For example, yourdomain.com should be forwarded to http://yourdomain.com. (Do not choose masking for this forward.)
- This should create a forwarding IP address in the A record of the DNS.
(2) AWS
Using AWS Amplify with GoDaddy and I configured my DNS records with these two entries to get it working.
- Type Name Data
CNAME www dkihdeom86nes.cloudfront.net.
- Initially I only had the www entry which is why it wasn't working for me.
