How to add a Custom Domain for a Google Drive hosted Website ?

Although Google does not allow to add a custom domain for Google Drive hosted website. But with a the help of this website : http://gweb.io/ you can add a custom domain for your website. Just follow the steps :

Step 1 :

On that website click " Login with Google ". Then it will be redirected to a request permission Page and there click " Accept ".

Then it will take you a page containing your Google Drive files and folders. There you can easily find the folder in which your website's files and folders are hosted.

Click on the " Link " button beside the desire folder name. See an example :

Then URI would somewhat like devtunes.gweb.io and " Domain? " box will be blank. Now go to your browser, type { devtunes.gweb.io } and enjoy your website.

Note : The folder should contain an index.html file of your website. Otherwise it will just display a list of files present in that folder.

Set up your own Domain

And in the " Domain? " box you can add your Custom Domain. But before adding a custom Domain you have to do two things.

1. Modify your domain's DNS :

Login to your DNS management account. Add or modify [ www.example.com ] CNAME record and point it to [ example.gweb.io ].

2. Set your domain on gweb.io :

You have to go to the gweb.io panel and set [ www.example.com ] as the domain for [ example.gweb.io ]

Without www, if you want to access example.gweb.io via example.com , you need to set up the DNS For [ example.com ] like this:

Add/modify three A records and point them to:

75.101.163.44

75.101.145.87

174.129.212.2

N.B. : Don't forget to add the domain [ example.com ] in the gweb.io panel beside the URI link. See Docs for further information.
