Most of us purchase the hosting and the domain from different companies. We usually do this because we get the best prices from different providers.
But, the point is most people don’t know how to assign their domain name servers to host service.
Well, don’t worry. Because, in this post, I’m going to guide you on how to Connect your Domain to another Hosting using Name Servers.

Find the Name Server of your Hosting.
Usually, whenever you purchase your hosting through any hosting provider they always e-mail you basic installation details in your e-mail account. In case, something went wrong or you mistakenly deleted the e-mail, then there are always other options to help you.
You can find the Name Servers (NS) by using any of the methods mention below:
- You can Call or E-mail the Hosting Provider
- Just Google it!
Basically, the Second method is the easiest one. Use Google to Find the Name Server of your Hosting Provider.
Now that you’ve got the Name Servers, Let’s proceed further.
Changing your Domain Name Servers
Now, it’s time you replace your Domain Nameservers with the ones your Hosting Provider provides you.
In this post, I’m going to demonstrate the process using two Domain Providers: Bigrock and Godaddy
Let’s try using BigRock:
- Go to your Domain’s panel.
- Choose your domain name.
- Then click on Name Servers option and replace them with the one your Hosting Provider provides you [Check the Screenshot below].
Let’s try Using Godaddy
- Go to My Domain Panel.
- Choose your domain name.
- Search for Manage DNS option.
- Then Under the Nameservers, Click on Change button to change your Nameservers.
- Enter the Name Servers provided by your Hosting Service.
And, you’re done. Generally, it takes 1 to 3 hours but in some cases, it can take up to 48 to 72 hours to fully reflect the changes.
