GoodyOG: If i may ask are you using wordpress or ? For wp/drupal/joomla/concrete5 and other apps; Adjust the DNS settings for the domain. Simply setup a CNAME-record (this is an entry within the Domain Name System (DNS) which specifies the location of your web pages) for the domain with the “ www” prefix pointing to the web-server's IP, and also setup an A-record for the domain name without the “www” prefix to point to the web-server's IP address. That is, having an A-record for goodiestechs.tk and a CNAME-record for www.goodiestechs.tk , pointing to the same web-server IP address. for ,let me know so that i can direct you |

GoodyOG: For Blogger; Before you can start using a custom domain like w w w (dot)goodiestechs(dot)tk for your blogger powered blog, you will need to have already purchased the domain name from a valid domain registrar and link it to your blogger account. since you have already done that and want your domain to be accessible with or without a w w w , then Go to your Blogger Dashboard . Click on Settings >>> Basic and then under the Publishing Section, locate and click on Edit . You should see a check box which reads Redirect goodiestechs.tk to w w w(dot)goodiestechs(dot)tk or Redirect w w w(dot)goodiestechs(dot)tk to goodiestechs.tk . If you do not see the above image, then it means you have not added a CNAME in your domain DNS settings which is located on the domain’s control panel. Adding of a Canonical Name (CNAME) requires that you locate your domain DNS settings page. After you are done with that, go back to your Blogger account again and click on Settings >>> Basic. In the Publishing section, locate and click on Add Custom Domain . Enter the domain name in the box immediately after http:// starting it with a w w w i.e. w w w(dot)goodiestechs(dot)tk then click on Save . Once it is saved, locate and click on the Edit link just in front of the domain you just added. Now tick the checkbox which should be reading Redirect goodiestechs(dot)tk to w w w(dot)goodiestechs(dot)tk. Finally click on the Save button With that done, your web page will and can be accessible with or without the user entering the w w w prefix. If you encounter any problem, feel free to let me know so I can assist you. 1 Like |

GoodyOG:why using dot tk domain when you can build a brand with a custom domain name. In the long run, you will have yourself to be blamed for using free tk domain instead of custom domain. As for the www issue, you will have to add the A records to your domain dns and also tick the redirect option on your blogger settings |

bedfordng:Pls i have a serious issue I have a site hosted on wa_pka everything was working well then suddenly it stops opening on opera mini since last week. But open on other browsers. I guess it's the dns server of wa_pka that's having an issue with opera mini which is Ns1.wa_pka.mobi Ns2.wa_pka.mobi Because it happened last year and I changed the dns to cloudflare.com dns server after registring my site with cloudflare.com. But now I tried doing same on cloudflare.com but it didn't work again. Any solution or dns server I can point to to enable the site accessible because now all site hosted on wa_pka is not opening on opera mini |
