I think i’m not getting the DNS setting right either: * A is set to the ip address shown on hte write.as set-up page. I haven’t set an AAAA as it say optional? and the ‘blog.my-domain.here’ CNAME is me.writeas.com. A good 24hours has passed though I don’t seem to be anywhere. I have a domain though haven’t built a website for it yey do I need to do that first perhaps?
If your DNS settings are correct there should be nothing else you need to do. Could you provide the domain for me to verify? Sometimes ISPs cache DNS for a long time so it might work for others already.
Rob, I may have found my mistake! They are now showing as: www, A, 56.56.249.138 and www, CNAME, me.writeas.com.
Many thanks indeed Rob you got on track and it now appear to be working.
