This page explains how to setup Github Pages

You can always consult to Official Docs as well, same things are explained here in a different way.
https://docs.github.com/en/pages/configuring-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site

FYI: GitHub Pages for public repos are free, private repos require paid GitHub subscription.

🔴 IMPORTANT: Repo name should be github-username.github.io if you want to use GitHub Pages subdomain. Change it from ssg while forking the repo or later in the repo settings. To use a Custom Domain, scroll below for its steps.

  1. Fork this repository and name the fork as your-github-username.github.io if you want to use GitHub Pages as https://your-github-username.github.io unless you use a custom domain with DNS records.

  2. Go to your repo -> Settings -> Pages (on the left) and select GitHub Actions option in the Source select box,

    • Do not select Jekyll or static site options below, don't click on them.

  3. Go to Actions tab of your repo at top, beside Code and Pull requests.

    • Enable the Workflow.
    • Select Deploy Website from the left column.
    • Click Run Workflow button on the right and click Run Workflow again.
    • Now Select All workflows on the left column and see the progress of the build process.

Using a Custom Domain

FYI: You can have multiple A and AAAA records for the same domain or subdomain name.

A 185.199.108.153
A 185.199.109.153
A 185.199.111.153
A 185.199.110.153
AAAA 2606:50c0:8003::153
AAAA 2606:50c0:8002::153
AAAA 2606:50c0:8001::153
AAAA 2606:50c0:8000::153
    • If your repo name matches your-github-username.github.io, which you can only have one repo in this name, then you can also add your-github-username.github.io as a CNAME record to your DNS records instead and still have a custom domain, instead of the IP addresses above.
