Site Setup Overview
This guide outlines the process for setting up a site using Unstoppable Domains, GitHub Pages, and a custom domain.
Step 1: Purchasing the Domain
- Unstoppable Domains is used to purchase a .crypto or .xyz domain that can be linked to a GitHub Pages site.
- Go to Unstoppable Domains to search for and purchase your custom domain (e.g., dovahw.xyz).
- Complete the purchase process and follow the platform’s instructions to manage your domain.
Step 2: Setting Up GitHub Pages
For detailed instructions on setting up GitHub Pages with a custom domain, please refer to the official GitHub Pages documentation for custom domains.
Step 3: Configuring DNS Records
- In Unstoppable Domains, configure DNS settings for your custom domain.
- Refer to the official GitHub Pages documentation for setting the correct A records and CNAME records for your custom domain.
Step 4: Set the Custom Domain in GitHub
- Once DNS records are updated, follow the steps in the GitHub Pages Custom Domain documentation to link your custom domain to the repository.
Step 5: Wait for DNS Propagation
It may take up to 48 hours for the DNS changes to fully propagate across the internet. Once complete, your site will be accessible via your custom domain.
