link to my new .com

I have a page (backwater-blues) that I've built and need to have my new .com (BackwaterBluesStudio.com) point to that page. Ideas to do this?

To connect your new domain to your Homestead page, you need to forward the domain or update its DNS settings depending on where you bought the domain.
Here is how you can do it based on your setup:
Option 1: Map the Domain inside Homestead (Recommended)
If you want BackwaterBluesStudio.com to stay in the browser address bar while showing your page, you need to point the domain's DNS to Homestead.
  1. Log in to your domain registrar (e.g., GoDaddy, Namecheap, Google Domains). [1]
  2. Locate the DNS Management or Name Server settings for your domain. [1]
  3. Change the Name Servers to Homestead's official name servers:
    • ://mdn.com
    • ://mdn.com
  4. Log in to Homestead, go to your Domain Manager, and associate the domain with your backwater-blues site.
Option 2: Set Up Domain Forwarding (Quickest)
If you just want anyone typing the .com to be automatically redirected to your existing Homestead URL, use forwarding.
  1. Log in to your domain registrar.
  2. Find the Forwarding or Redirection section in your domain dashboard.
  3. Select Forward with Masking if you want the .com to stay in the address bar, or Forward Only if you don't mind it changing to the Homestead URL.
  4. Enter your exact Homestead page URL as the destination.
  5. Save changes and wait up to 24–48 hours for the redirection to work globally.

Thanks very much for the information.

The first thing I did was to go to your Blue House Productions website. Good to know of that service.
