Configuring a custom domain for your GitHub Pages site

GitHub Pages supports using custom domains, or changing the root of your site's URL from the default, like octocat.github.io, to any domain you own.

You can set up or update certain DNS records and your repository settings to point the default domain for your GitHub Pages site to a custom domain.

You can increase the security of your custom domain and avoid takeover attacks by verifying your domain.

You can check for common errors to resolve issues with custom domains or HTTPS for your GitHub Pages site.
