Favicon not working when redirecting github page with mask (my own domain)

Question

Good night, i have a page mounted on github pages: https://ludicultura.github.io/ludiweb/

If you open that link the favicon works perfectly, but i buy a domain on goDaddy so i can redirect that page, masking it with my domain: http://ludicultura.com/ and there the favicon it doesn't work.

(Both of them links are up, so you can check them.)

I tried the option of adding a "?" to the end of "href"

    <link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico?">

And algo changing my image to png:

      <link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/png" href="/favicon.png"/>

But nothing works, what is happening?

Source and records of the repository and all the changes: https://github.com/ludicultura/ludiweb

@frnt You can't see it on any of the first two links? Check the repository, there it is the favicon. — Ricardo Moctezuma S, Sep 03 '16 at 06:26

For ludicultura.github.io/ludiweb/, change your favicon url to <link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="{{ site.baseurl }}/favicon.ico">.

But framing ludicultura.github.io/ludiweb/ in ludicultura.com is not a good practice.

You'd better setup your custom domain correctly after reading this documentation on github pages.

Still not working, i think the problem is some dns configuration, something like the CNAME. – Ricardo Moctezuma S Sep 04 '16 at 19:06
`dig ludicultura.com` returns `ludicultura.com. 578 IN A 184.168.221.19` it is supposed to be 192.30.252.153 or 192.30.252.154. So yes it is a DNS problem. Maybe you just have to wait for the change replication. – David Jacquel Sep 04 '16 at 19:13
