- Open your web host server account to find and copy your domain name server(s) such as ns####.hostgator.com.
- Open your Domain registrar account, select your domain name link, and then select ‘domain name setup’ or ‘Transfer to another hosting DNS server’.
- Specify custom DNS servers by pasting the domain name server(s) information into the proper field boxes. The change can take as long as twenty-four hours, but often occurs much sooner.
- This procedure is usually done automatically if you register your domain name with the same host server.
