I want a sub-domain on my google domains to point to blog.mydomain.example. Currently, it points to DNS at the root domain to Github pages. I want that to remain the same, but the blog subdomain to point to my wordpress running on digital ocean.

How can I do this?

  • Doesn't Google Domains have some kind of web interface for making changes?

  • You just need to create an A record in DNS that points at the other server's IP.

    This will change more than just the subdomain.

  • In the above documents, this is explained. Also note that for DNS changes to take effect, it might take a propagation period of several minutes, depending on your location, or 24-48 hours across the entire internet.
