I’ve done the server setup, then I did https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-nginx-on-ubuntu-18-04 Nginx installation like in the link, also bought a domain 3 days ago ( armvas.tech from bluehost, set the NS servers to all digitalocean ns1-3 servers,then added the domain from droplet control panel.
Is there a step I missed?
https://www.whatsmydns.net/#NS/armvas.tech - it looks like my domain hasn’t propogated in some addresses. Do I need to wait for full propogation?

Hi @799arman
I can see that your domain is using the DigitalOcean name servers, so far so good, but it doesn’t seem like you’ve created A record pointing to your droplet’s IP address.
Go to https://cloud.digitalocean.com/networking/domains and add your domain, and create an A record for @ pointing to your droplet’s IP and then create a CNAME record for www pointing to armvas.tech
