Followed the official Github docs for Managing a custom domain for your Github Pages site.

  • added my custom domain in the repo settings
    • the dns check will fail for now, since the CNAME record hasn’t been added
  • edit the CNAME record for the www subdomain to point to my github pages site
  • wait…
  • the next day, confirmed that ‘www.lillchan.com’ was pointing to my github pages site
    • dig www.lillchan.com
