.de domain registered but doesn't work

I’m hosting my website on InfinityFree and I’ve bought a domain name from Namecheap with a ‘.de’ extension. I successfully verified my domain using CNAME verification method. After I created the a website using wordpress, the wordpress website gave me a link. But when I open the link, the page shows “This site can’t be reached”

Error Message

This site can’t be reached
Check if there is a typo in cmgi-online-berlin.de.
If spelling is correct, try running Windows Network Diagnostics.
DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

Can anyone please let me know if there’s a way to fix this?

But did you point your website to the server you were assigned to after that?

Make sure you are pointing @ and www to 185.27.134.98

After you’ve verified your domain name with the CNAME method, you have to use an “A” record to point it to your site.

Right now your domain doesn’t appear to have any such record:
opera_oiKldP5fRT
Add those two A records using your DNS provider and the issue should be resolved. Do note that due to DNS propagation, it can take some time for the change to be reflected.
