How to configure Google Domains + Heroku w a Naked Domain

by

It’s advisable to make the www subdomain the default here, such that the root/naked domain redirects to www. This is in line with Heroku recommendations, which states:

For maximum scalability and resiliency applications should avoid using
DNS A-records and instead use a DNS provider that supports CNAME
functionality at the apex, or use sub-domains exclusively

You can achieve this with Google Domains Synthetic Records:

  • Go to the Synthetic Records section
  • Select Subdomain forward
  • Enter @ for subdomain, and www.xyz.com for destination
