Site can't be reached; DNS error

Posted on March 21, 2016

I purchased a domain through GoDaddy and was going through the steps to host my site through Digital Ocean but am running into DNS issues after following the steps to host.

I followed this tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-host-name-with-digitalocean

I updated the nameservers on GoDaddy over a month ago to point to ns1/2/3.digitalocean.com and created a new domain on Digital Ocean. But when I go to my domain, I just see an error saying “This site can’t be reached. <mydomain>'s server DNS address could not be found” (ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED).

I’ve hosted another domain through DO and had no issues at all. Was curious if anyone might now something I’m overlooking here. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
