So I decided to set up a website for my wife’s business after having set up one of my own recently. So here’s what I’m running into… When I got my Wife’s site up and running the other day I noticed that in the address bar of my browser, her website shows her custom domain name that’s being directed to netlify nameservers from squarespace. This has been bugging me because when I go to my website for my own business, entering in my custom domain, the address bar shows my netlify url. I had both sites set up identically for days, regarding DNS settings used between the two sites. I can’t figure out why my website won’t show my domain in the browser… Wondering if maybe I missed something in the html code or possibly something on the netlify side of things.
Currently both sites point to the netlify provided and appointed nameservers, her site (www.crazyturtlelady.com) has the default netilify dns records, while her squarespace dns setting contain 2 records an A record pointing to 75.2.60.5 and a CNAME record for www pointing to crazyturtlelady.com. Running a DNS check on that website seems to display wrong information for a netlify hosted page but somehow it continues to work (so far a few days like this) and show her custom domain in the address bar.
Where I’m at with my site:
I’ve gone through and replicated the setup used for her site for my own site’s dns settings in hopes that I can get the same result. But have so far been unsuccessful in my efforts with everything I’ve tried. Chat bot might have steered me wrong on the process for setting it all up in terms of where DNS records should be entered in (squarespace or netlify). At the end of the day I just want the domains I paid for to display in the browser for a more professional web presence.
Any suggestions of anything I may have missed and any help provided is greatly appreciated, been trying to figure this out for a few days now. sites below for reference.
