sir there is an error about this:

CNAME Record
Host: yourran.tk
IP: ghs.google.com

it says the host and the ip is both invalid.
 
after a few months, your domain will be automatically deleted from dot tk if you will not upgrade your account to premium membership. I will recommend you to buy your own domain name it will only cost 500php per year.
 
.info is much better $4 for 1 year.

if dont have badget use .tk or no-ip.org
