Changing the name servers of a domain name

To change the name servers of a particular domain name, you have to refer to the registrar company where it is currently registered. If you wish to change the name servers of a domain name that is registered with us, you can do that via the Domain Manager section of the Web Hosting Control Panel. There are two ways to do that.

Method 1: In front of each domain name there is an option to select it (put a check mark). Once you do that you must click on the "Edit NS" button.

Once you click on the "Edit NS" button you are forwarded to a page where you can input the new name servers. When you are done you simply click on the "Next" button. That will change the name servers of the domain name.

Important note: You can use this method to change the name servers for multiple domain names.

Method 2: Next to each domain name there is a row of icons divided into separate columns. The last but one column is named NS and there is an icon that reads "NS".

Once you click on the NS icon, a small pop-up window will appear providing you with two options - to edit the name server settings and to register your own private name servers. If you chose the first option, you will be forwarded to the same page as in Method 1 where you have to input the new name servers. When you are done, you have to simply click on the "Next" button and that will again change the name servers of the domain name. To learn more about the second option, please refer to the article "Registering private name servers".

Important note: Name server changes may require up to 24 hours to take effect.
