  • I've created an A-Record on my DNS provider 40.113.81.82 which is what azure asks for (and to create a CNAME resource record with your DNS provider that points from either www.yourdomain.com to deanmeehanblog.azurewebsites.net) and is how I got any domains working. Azure then lets you add these "verified" addresses to the list of domain names for the server. Commented Nov 3, 2015 at 1:27

    The thing is you have not created a valid A record for "dean.technology" (and you can't use a CNAME) Try adding a subdomain called "@" with an A record pointng to 40.113.81.82 and see if that works - Based on azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/… I think it will.

  • Thanks alot, finally got around to changing it. Do you know what does the @ symbol actually do in DNS in my case? Commented Nov 4, 2015 at 12:34
  • The @ symbol specifies “the root of the zone (domain)“ ie as opposed to a subdomain.
