A while back I purchased a domain through siteground. I have a build a react app that I just deployed at Heroku and want to point the domain located at siteground to the app. However I'm having some issues with it. I need to add it to the cname record but I have no idea how. I have tried it now by making a cname record for [www].example.nl with resolves to erwer1234adadad.herokudns .com which is the (*.example.nl) however it's still not working (gyazo.com/c321dd078fa34343a696074c4c4fa884)
I contacted the siteground support but they think I speak french.
In my opinion site ground doesn't support naked/root domain pointing so I would suggest to use any service like cloudflare or dns simple , if you don't want to use external service you can go ahead with point dns a heroku addon.
Please follow the below-mentioned steps to configure pointDNS
1.Go to APP -> settings-> under domain section add below domains domainname.com www.domainname.com.
2. Go to resources-> add PointDNS addon, Verify by clicking on pointDNS 3. Copy all NS records from dataplug to pointDNS 4. Update NS issued by pointDNS (dns8.pointhq.com,dns12.pointhq.com) in siteground
