I have a node.js app hosted on Heroku, and domain registered with one.com.
I want my one.com DNS to be the domain for my Heroku hosted app - Not just a redirect or an iframe.
What are the correct DNS settings for this?

My heroku app is not linking to my godaddy custom domain
I've tried changing the cname to host to "www" and the "points to" to the heroku dns target I was given. Still it has not worked. I've also tried putting the url of the heroku app:
https://agile-thicket-51202.herokuapp.com/
I've tried the forwarding settings in godaddy as well but was unsuccessful.
(My custom domain has already been verified on heroku)
This is how it appears on my godaddy dns settings:
CNAME www "herokudnstarget"
Could other dns settings be interfering with this?
While working with cname GoDaddy only allows you to point www subdomain.For naked domain pointing use cloudflare or heroku add-on pointDNS.
I have a domain registered on bluehost and Im trying to point the DNS to my heroku app. I have changed the www entry to the provided target. I also added the domain in heroku (once with the www and once without). The domain name is still responded to with the bluehost hosted app and not redirecting to the heroku instance. Please advise?
Please check if there is any A record.
I created a new heroku nodejs app.
And i received the domain name with HTTPS.
I am using an API where service provider provides only http based requests.
Now the question is can i run heroku app on http?
Your Heroku app will respond to both ports 80 (http) and 443 (https) on the herokuapp.com domain you were given. So if your app is called myapp, you can access it via http://myapp.herokuapp.com and https://myapp.herokuapp.com
I have built a backend server application without a frontend to it. Can I still deploy it to heroku ?
Sure. Heroku only hosts apps.
As long as your backend server application listens on a specified port, and is able to receive and respond to HTTP requests, you can host it on Heroku.
Would like to learn how website works.
Purchased a domain name from bigrock domain registrar.
Am used to deploy applications to Heroku for my official websites.
But this is my personal site deployed to Heroku.
But how to connect my domain name to heroku ?
Heroku documentation is not clear to me.
I tried domain forwarding after playing with google search, but my site http://www.prithvibhargav.com/ is still giving me blank page.
Where as the heroku default website address still works
http://afternoon-cove-8287.herokuapp.com/
How to make my domain name to connect to heroku and work ?
There are so many terminoliges people use which is confusing
CName , A address, 301 redirect, domain forwarding
Which one to choose ?
You need to set your DNS to point to your heroku address. You should be able to go into the DNS settings in bigrock (where you registered the domain) and create CName record that will forward from your domain (http://www.prithvibhargav.com) to the heroku address (http://afternoon-cove-8287.herokuapp.com/)
