???? What are Nameservers?
Nameservers connect your domain name to your website and email services.
They tell the Internet:
“Where should this domain point?”
Without correct nameservers, your website and emails will not work.
???? Why Would I Change My Nameservers?
You may need to change your nameservers if:
-
You moved your website to a new hosting provider
-
You are using Cloudflare
-
You are using a VPS or dedicated server
-
You want to use custom/private nameservers
-
Your hosting provider gave you new DNS servers
???? Before You Start
Make sure:
-
Your new hosting account is active
-
The new DNS servers are correct
-
Your website files are already uploaded
Example of nameservers:
ns1.yourhost.com
ns2.yourhost.com
