Hi, I’m trying to connect a custom domain to a Vercel deployment, but I’ve been stuck with a persistent issue for over a month.
My setup is:
-
Domain is registered with GoDaddy
-
Nameservers are set to GoDaddy default (ns73/ns74.domaincontrol.com)
-
DNS records include:
-
A record pointing the root domain (@) to a Vercel IP
-
CNAME record for www pointing to the Vercel DNS target
-
The website itself works perfectly on the default Vercel subdomain, but the custom domain does not resolve correctly.
What I’m seeing:
-
DNS check tools return NXDOMAIN (domain not found) or no valid resolution
-
External resolvers like Google DNS and Cloudflare DNS cannot resolve the domain
-
Vercel shows “Invalid Configuration (307)” for the domain
I have already:
-
Verified DNS records multiple times
-
Re-added the domain in Vercel multiple times
-
Waited extended periods for propagation
-
Checked nameserver configuration
At this point, everything appears correctly configured in the DNS dashboard, but the domain is still not publicly resolving.
I’m trying to figure out whether this is a DNS propagation issue, a registry-level delegation problem, or something specific to Vercel domain verification.
Any insights would be appreciated.
