Route 53 Registered Domain Not Resolving

Hi,

I can't confirm that your entire configuration is correct, but I did see that the NS record in the swiftthistle.co.uk hosted zone and the domain registration are both using the wrong name servers.

When you create a hosted zone, Route 53 assigns four name servers to that hosted zone. When you create another hosted zone, Route 53 assigns four different name servers to that hosted zone. Based on the current settings, I'd guess that you:
~ Deleted one hosted zone
~ Created another hosted zone
~ Changed the NS record in the new hosted zone to use the name servers from the domain registration, which has the name servers from the old hosted zone

Here's how you fix that:

1. Get the name servers that Route 53 assigned to the new hosted zone. See "Getting the Name Servers for a Public Hosted Zone" in the Route 53 Developer Guide:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/GetInfoAboutHostedZone.html

2. Update the NS record in the new hosted zone to use the name servers that you got in step 1. See "Editing Records":

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/resource-record-sets-editing.html

3. Update the domain registration to use the name servers that you got in step 1. See "Adding or Changing Name Servers and Glue Records for a Domain":

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/domain-name-servers-glue-records.html

On a related note, you might also want to take a peek at "Getting Started," which explains how to use Route 53, S3, and CloudFront to distribute your content:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/getting-started.html

There are several versions of that explanation floating around in various docs; this is my favorite. :-)
