Pointing to a free subdomain via CNAME won’t do much, as the hosting system does not recognise your record if it does not exist on the system, so it will redirect it to suspendeddomain.org .
You are trying to set up the domain on custom nameservers
If you’re trying to set up your domain on your own nameservers, there are two common errors which may cause your domain to redirect to suspendeddomain.org .
You did not assign the domain name to a hosting account
In order for our servers to show a website on your domain, you MUST assign the domain name to a hosting account first. You can do this through the control panel. Note that you may need to (temporarily) move the domain name to our nameservers in order to verify ownership of the domain.
While you can use your own nameservers to point the domain to the IP address of your hosting account (using A or CNAME records), doing so doesn’t give our servers enough information to figure out which account and directory is associated with your website. So it cannot show any website files.
