I spent couple of hours trying to figure it out, so finally I got it. Here’s a summary. Hope it will save time to other developers who are using Godaddy & Heroku.
SETTINGS ON GoDaddy
A(Host)
- Create 3 A(Host) type of records
- Host on each is @
- Points to is: 75.101.163.44, 75.101.145.87, and 174.129.212.2
Cname(Alias)
- Create one Cname type of record
- Host is www
- Points to is: yourdomain.herokuapp.com
Forwarding
- enables you to forward yourdomain.com to www.yourdomain.com
SETTINGS ON Heroku
- Go to the terminal and add the Godaddy domain to your Heroku app.
- heroku domains:add www.yourdomain.com
- heroku domains:add yourdomain.com
… and voilà!
