I have a domain that's been deployed via Heroku, and is up and running fine with the www. But if I go to the domain without the www, it does not render correctly. I tried adding both domains on Heroku, with www and without www, but unfortunately it still does not work.

Also, I tried following step two on here ( http://documentation.unbounce.com/hc/en-us/articles/203687274-Setting-Up-Your-CNAME-with-GoDaddy-godaddy-com- ) but continued to get an error: An unexpected error occurred. If this issue continues, contact support.

How can I add a naked domain to GoDaddy to forward to my web deployed on Heroku like my domain with www?

Thank you

Try adding another A record, with the same IP but using @ instead of www for the host name.

Also remember that changes take an average of half an hour to make effect.

I have two A records at the moment. Which IP should I add? Please look at the original post with the image update. Also just wondering how is that going to cover for the naked domain?Doorstop
You should add the IP of your Heroku instance for both records. The @ subdomain covers for the naked domain.Hognut
Sorry but could you clarify on Heroku instance for both records? Where can I find them?Doorstop
