Getting setup with Namecheap and Github

Published: at 12:00 AM

I thought it was only appropriate for a first post to explain and point to resources that got me started with my custom domain using Namecheap and GitHub Pages.

I used Namecheap help and GitHub help sections throughout the setup.

Pointing your domains to a gh-pages branch requires the following steps:

Steps to Follow:

  1. Create A records on Namecheap with the following GitHub IPs 192.30.252.153 and 192.30.252.154
  2. Change CNAME alias on Namecheap to username.github.io (replace username with yours)
  3. Remove URL record if it’s there
  4. Wait up to 30 minutes for changes to propagate
