I've a domain, let's say abcd.com
, For this domain,
We have a wildcard A record pointing to an IP say, 12.34.56.78
,
* => 12.34.56.78
So, all subdomains of abcd.com
point to 12.34.56.78
.
So, when I access small.abcd.com
, it points to 12.34.56.78
.
Then, we added a Cname record for Google domain verification of small.abcd.com
,
eocjdrkdkoed.small => gv-f8ded7dfivfkdo.dv.googlehosted.com

This caused a DNS error with small.abcd.com. That is, this url small.abcd.com is no longer accessible and it no longer points to 12.34.56.78. On nslookup, it says, "Can't find small.abcd.com: No answer". Can anyone help me with this ? Is it an issue with my DNS provider or is it how DNS records work ?
edit: The domain not working - small57.realizegoal.com. Before, it used to point to xxx.xx.68.191. After adding DNS verification Cname record, it started failing.
