I have created my domain name archents.app in Godaddy and I have redirected the namservers to google cloud DNS nameservers.

In cloud DNS I have created a A record pointing to my VM Instance.

But the website archents.app is only showing up on Android Brave Browser.

Why is this happening? How can I make archents.app work for all browsers?

  • If you just changed the name servers, it can take a few hours (up to 3 days) for the changes to propagate. Use an Internet tool such as https://mxtoolbox.com/ to check your DNS settings and verify there are as you require. – John Hanley Jan 04 '20 at 17:59

I tried to recreate your use case and had one of my VM's assign a static public IP.

When I checked your domain dig command was providing correct IP, which meant you had A record set up OK.

$ dig archents.app

; <<>> DiG 9.11.5-P4-5.1+build1-Debian <<>> archents.app

So - to be sure everything works (in my case) I followed those steps:

  1. reserved external regional static address and attached it to my test VM
  2. created a public zone in cloud DNS (in your case put archents.app in the "DNS name" field.
  3. added a record set to my zone (just selected A Record Type, set TTL to 1 minute (for convinience) and put my IP in the "IPv4 Address".

Please have a look into an official documentation how to update a DNS record sets.

After a few minutes everything started working as expected.
