Help with custom domain name

Hosting on Micro.blog

Hi everyone

First time poster here so go easy! :slight_smile:

I’m really excited about being a new micro.blog user - and I’m looking forward to getting started with a couple of blogs (I’ve subscribed to Premium).

I have a couple of domains registered here in the UK with Krystal and have tried to set up the DNS but it’s not working. I’m just wondering if anyone can take a look for me and ensure I’m on the right lines?

It should be said I’m an amateur, an enthusiastic one but still an amateur so any help is much appreciated. Screenshots attached for info.

Thank you very much

Hi, and welcome to Micro.blog! :waving_hand:

Did you make the changes recently? While DNS updates are usually pretty quick these days, in theory it can take many hours for the changes to fully propagate across the thousands of servers that make up the global DNS system.

Your screenshot looks good to me if your blog is hosted in the U.S. (You can choose to host it in the EU too.)

If you want support for the www subdomain, you’ll need to set up a CNAME record as well.
