Domain Transfer to AWS S3 Hosting - Hosted Zone Configuration Issue

I recently transferred my domain from Google Sites to AWS and received confirmation emails indicating a successful transfer. Following the instructions provided in this tutorial (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/website-hosting-custom-domain-walkthrough.html), steps 2 through 10 proceeded smoothly without encountering any issues. However, upon reaching step 11, where I was supposed to select a hosted zone, I did not find any hosted zone available, despite the expectation that one would have been created automatically upon domain transfer. Consequently, I proceeded to create one manually. Subsequently, I continued with the steps and created records within the hosted zone.

Upon reaching step 12 for testing, I encountered an issue. Simply entering my domain name did not yield the expected result. However, using the bucket website endpoint generated in step 10 (http://<domain_name>.s3-website-us-west-1.amazonaws.com) worked perfectly fine.

I would greatly appreciate assistance in resolving this matter, as I suspect it may be related to name server configuration.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
