Purchasing a Domain name and pointing to GCP

Domain point to GCP

The domain name is provided by different Host server websites like GoDaddy.  Here for learning purposes, I purchased a free domain from the most preferred provider called freenom. (https://www.freenom.com

  • First, sign in to the GCP account 
  • Network services → cloud DNS → Create DNS Zone 
  • ADD RECORD SET → With and without WWW.[Text Wrapping Break]

Add IPv4 Address 1 as our IP external Address. 
  • Freenom → Manage Domain → Management Tools→ Name servers
  • The nameserver values are added from Cloud DNS Zone.
  • Open wp-admin of GCP website. Goto settings→ General settings→ Change IP address values.
  • Change the Ip address of the site to the domain name.

Done..!
