How to Redirect a Godaddy domain to Digital Ocean and redirect it to a specific webpage?

Posted on August 9, 2018

Hi, We have an account in Godaddy with an A record pointing to our Digital Ocean IP. Please note, we have no access in Godaddy to change any further information. We need help in the following:

Redirect: www.example.com* (Godaddy) * to redirect to a specific url webpage: **ourwebsite.com/webpageexample/ *** ( Digital Ocean ). *

How can we do this step by step?

Hello friend!

In this example, www.example.com is resolving to GoDaddy hosting and not to your droplet, correct? If that is the case, the redirect will need to be configured within GoDaddy’s hosting service.

Hi, I have the same doubt, actually, I have changed the nameservers in GoDaddy but the website is not redirecting into the digital ocean website, may I know the reason and how much time to take it.
