Simple question: we transferred everything over to Cloudflare, but now, if someone visits breakdiving.io directly, without typing in the the full URL, some ‘url shortener’ website comes up. It’s causing many problems with our marketing, because people are just typing breakdiving.io and getting redirected, and we lose our potential member.
It says the first step is to add a dummy IP address. Does this mean that I should create that in GoDaddy, or on CloudFlare? If on CloudFlare, where to set that up?
You only need one A record, but if you are using a page rule to intercept and redirect all requests then it makes no difference at all what IP you list, and it won’t matter if there is one or two.
