Hello. I followed the instructions for the link in your description and was able to connect my custom domain to the Google site, but anytime I don't start the web address with a "www" it goes to a 404 page. Is there a way to have the domain work without the www? Thank you!
My keywords will be ( Cook, food, like, a, pro ) So does it need to look like, Cook good like a pro -or can I add the extra words into the keyword text to say something like ( How to cook food like a pro ) notice that I added the two words, HOW TO into it.
Omg thank goodness for people like you posting videos like this. I NEVER would've figured this out! I look forward to trying it out today...thank you thank you thank you
my domain doesn't work unless www is typed at the beginning. I sthere a way to avoid this? I cannot do a redirect either and I'm using hostinger. Any help appreciated. Thanks
Hi I am attempting to add a 123 reg domain to my google site. In the dns record in the name box you say 'name remains the same'. I don't understand what I type after the @? What name is it asking for please? It won't let me add record without filling this bit in on 123 reg.
Very helpful tutorials, thank you so much! At 5:55, Connect 3rd party registrar screen doesn't appear for me. After domain is verified, and custom record is added to domain provider, I've had to restart set up custom domain from google site, repeat verification step, and screen stops at auto-verified. There's not been a screen to continue adding custom domain after domain is verified. Perplexed. Do you need to temporarily unpublish your free google site url to be able to add the custom domain? I have a google domain that Squarespace now owns and an old CNAME record is on the DNS showing that. Would old CNAME need to be deleted? Thanks for any help.
Dear Stewart! Thanks for all the great tutorials. I have got my domain via WIX and changed both the CNAME and TXT. However, despite the ownership verification, when I enter the domain on the Google site set up custom domain setting, it gives me the error of This isn't a valid domain. Do you reckon I need to wait 48 hours and try again or this has to do with something else? Thanks
hi Stewart do I have to pay twice to verify my domain name ? I purchased it from blue host , from the account setting it was required to repay again to be the process done
Have learnt a lot by watching your channel.Very impressed 👍 I'm now trying to populate one sheet with the names collected from another. Possible or not ? Looking forward to your answer.

I appreciate your Video Stewart. I've watched a number of these tutorials but no one seems to explain how to replace a www file that is not allowed to be deleted on Godaddy. It doesn't even give me the option to delete or edit it. As i try to add the new www DNS it says: "Record name www conflicts with another record". But when i scroll down to delete the other www record it says: "You can't modify records that have been applied by a product or service connected to your domain." Any ideas on what I can do here?

@@StewartGauld Hi, same problem for me, did everything according the video - web works with www. (when typing in the url), without www it redirects me on hostinger page with „Happy to see your domain with Hostinger! Your domain is active and is using Hostinger nameservers. Take the recommended steps below to continue your journey with Hostinger." I am totaly noob in this, but it seems like has something to do with Manage DNS records - add some redirecting for non www command?
@@lukasfic9834 If this Google Site is going to be the primary website for your domain, you'll need to set up URL forwarding so that people who don't type the "www" can still get to your site.
At the custom domain name verification step, it did not prompt me to that add txt step. It directed me to cname step. I followed that and published. But its not showing up on google. Please help.

@@StewartGauld google workspace; I guess now formerly know as g-suite.
I did everything but my website doesnt work without the www, how can I fix that??
What do you mean? When typing in the URL online or the setup.
@@StewartGauld Hi, same problem for me, did everything according the video - web works with www. (when typing in the url), without www it redirects me on hostinger page with „Happy to see your domain with Hostinger!
Your domain is active and is using Hostinger nameservers. Take the recommended steps below to continue your journey with Hostinger." I am totaly noob in this, but it seems like has something to do with Manage DNS records - add some redirecting for non www command?
@@lukasfic9834 If this Google Site is going to be the primary website for your domain, you'll need to set up URL forwarding so that people who don't type the "www" can still get to your site.
But in my email doesn't have custom domain. And the administrator of my school didn't know too how to appear the custom domain name
Have you seen our info on how to add this? See description.
At the custom domain name verification step, it did not prompt me to that add txt step. It directed me to cname step. I followed that and published. But its not showing up on google. Please help.
Hey,
I will have to look into this.
lovely video, insightful! Quick question Do i need hosting before i publish my Google site?
No hosting is included for free by Google.
Hey, great tutorial. I’ve done all the steps but my domain only links to my Google site. The Google site is still the web address?
Did you give it 24 hours?
Google is listing my website as http and not as https. Please guide.
Do you have a SSL?
@@StewartGauld yes, I have. Btw it's resolved. Thank you.
I bought my email domain from google. so how can i use my domain for the website too?
Have you seen our comment regarding this?
It works except for URLs without the "www". Other than that, great video, thanks!
Thanks!
