I've deployed my web site to GitHub pages and it worked perfectly with the GitHub URL. Then I configured my custom domain from Godaddy to my repository and I believe it's properly configured because when I go to my custom domain in the browser the title appears in the browser tab, however no content is being rendered on the screen. It's a blank page. Any guesses on what the problem could be is much appreciated. The domain name is "connorjaksik.com"

Originally I didn't set up the DNS records properly on "GoDaddy".
I didn't add a CNAME with a value of my GitHub account username.
After that I noticed the domain was reaching my repository on github, but not rendering the content.
I had to change the repositories package.json "homepage" setting from the default, to my custom domain.

The source HTML code for your blank page shows "http://parked-content.godaddy.com/park/...
", which means the redirection is not happening and Godaddy provides a placeholder page in the meantime.
Check your DNS provider settings, as explained here: it needs to allow "Naked" CName records in order to redirect your GitHub pages to a all domain name.
