If there's an existing A record pointing elsewhere, edit the value instead of creating a new one. If www has a CNAME, delete it first — A and CNAME records can't coexist for the same hostname.

The @ symbol represents your root domain (e.g., example.com). Some registrars use @, others require the full domain name or leave it blank.

Yes, you can set www as a CNAME pointing to your root domain. However, using an A record pointing directly to 69.167.168.228 is simpler and recommended.

Check: (1) DNS has propagated using the verification tool above, (2) the IP is correct, (3) the server is configured for your domain. Try flushing your local DNS cache: ipconfig /flushdns (Windows) or sudo dscacheutil -flushcache (Mac).
