I bought a domain from google (scilinkfl.com). I am trying to follow the documentation on how to use a bucket to setup a static website without any success!!
Attached are the content of my dns records where "A" IP address is the nslookup of scilinkfl.com and the snapshot of my bucket. I can not figure out why my domain is not working!!
I really appreciate any help. 

Thanks
Beheen

Cloud DNS is serving your domain:


But your zone is delegated to a different set of nameservers:


It looks like you registered your domain on Google Domains. Google Domains also provides DNS service, which uses Cloud DNS under the hood. You can either use the Google Domains interface to manage your records (no extra charge), or change the delegated nameservers in the Google Domains interface to point at ns-cloud-c[1-4].googledomains.com.

Robert,

See the attached dns.jpg please.

I think something else is wrong! Thanks

The delegations at Google Domains, and the .com nameservers, are still pointing to ns-cloud-b[1-4].googledomains.com.
Your attached dns.jpg shows the NS records inside your zone itself. But the NS records that matter are the ones at the parent zone, .com, which are controlled by Google Domains. Try navigating to https://domains.google.com/registrar and choosing "Use custom name servers". Add nameservers for


Sorry this is confusing when you are trying both Google Domains and Google Cloud DNS.

Ben,

I added google nameservers but I can not save them since the "Edit" button is activated.
Besides the section below is asking for the HostName. What is the hostname I should supply?

I followed the help(?) is asking me to put the registrar name on this field!! Which it doesn't seem to be correct!! Because the registrar says: "Google Inc."!! Below is that document:

Find your domain host

  1. Go to the whois lookup page provided by ICANN, a non-profit organization that compiles domain information. (You can also search for “whois free” to find a company that performs free lookups.)
  2. Enter your domain name in the search field and click Lookup.
  3. In the results page, look for the Registrar section for the name of your domain host and website. For example:

    Registrar: Polarmatix.com Domain Services

    Registrar URL: www.polarmatix.com or URL: www.polarmatix.com
