Background: Successfully deployed a site (kevinhermancreative.com) using my domain registered with goddady.com. Foolishly deleted the site then re-deployed it only to receive the “Awaiting External DNS” under the Domain Management. Tried selecting Setup Netlify DNS and received the A DNS zone for this domain already exists on NS1, the DNS provider backing Netlify DNS when trying to Add DNS. Selected the Netlify Support link to open a request and was told that either some other company has already configured a DNS zone for this domain at NS1 or a zone has previously existed on Netlify. In either of these cases, a new zone cannot be created. What I don’t understand is the zone file has to exist on Netlify as eveything worked perfectly prior to me deleting my site, there’s no other company that could have configured it.
What I have tried to do is reset my DNS Records at godaddy in hopes that it would revert the zone file - though I’m not entirely sure how this all works. Below is the current godaddy.com DNS record.
Following is a screenshot of my current Netlify Production Domains.
After resetting the goddady DNS I keep running into the same issues above. I guess my question is, in laymen terms, how can I get this resolved?
