Is it possible to forward my Domain name to a free hosted website?

77 Views Asked by At

I have purchased a Domain name from BigRock. Is it possible to redirect this domain to my free hosted website on pythonanywhere.com with a sub-domain? for ex: myxyz.pythonanywhere.com

I am using a free plan of pythonanywhere.com which gives us a sub-domain with "pythonanywhere" as a parent domain.

Suppose, the Domain I've purchased is "myabc.com". I want to redirect all the requests on this URL (myabc.com) to my free hosted website (i.e. myxyz.pythonanywhere.com)

Edit: I tried the Domain Forwarding feature of BigRock. I entered "http://myxyz.pythonanywhere.com" in the redirection URL. In a couple of hours when I went to myabc.com, It was showing "myxyz.pythonanywhere.com refused to connect". which might be indicating that redirection was successful but Pythonanywhere is somehow blocking the redirection.

I believe it is possible. BigRock should have a domain manager where you can add your pythonanywhere domain.
