Moved the site to vmandela.com

Posted on August 12, 2019 | blog setup

I have changed the URL for my site from https://vmandela.github.io to https://vmandela.com. Now I have recurring expense renewing the personal domain. :-)

The change is simple as the process is well documented on the Github here and here. The change is my first brush with the different types of DNS records. I had to setup

  1. An A record - Pointing the domain vmandela.com to GitHub’s IP addresses.
  2. An CNAME record - Pointing “www.vmandela.com” to “vmandela.com”.

There are over 10 types of records listed on my domain sellers page. One more thing to add to the reading list.
