I registered the site name https://xn-exmple-4nf.netlify.app/ and when I click on the link it says that the page is not found, xn-exmple-4nf is the encoded version of exаmple, if you can tell the а is a lookalike, so its not a real a, and that might be the problem, the site name https://example.netlify.app/ was taken, and if you go to https://exаmple.netlify.app/ it changes to the encoded version. So I thought I could do that but the site does not even work. PLEASE HELP.

@Shoonygog Have you deployed a site there, with an index.html page?

If you create a site instance, but don’t deploy a site, then you’ll see the default “Page Not Found” error.

Oh, I changed it to a “index.html” uploaded it and it still does not work, This is the “index.html” code:

<!doctype html>

<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
<style type="text/css">

    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    font-family: -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
    
}
div {
    width: 600px;
    margin: 5em auto;
    padding: 2em;
    background-color: #fdfdff;

@Shoonygog Have you changed the site name, because it now says “Site Not Found”?
