How to point my domain name from namecheap.com to godaddy webhosting single domain.

[jessp855]

Hi All,

Im new on this godaddy webhosting server which currently using for single domain only, I had purchased my domain name at namecheap.com, what I already pointed yesterday by changing the dns record which I get from godaddy DNS Management ns(no.provided).domaincontrol.com and put this NS to Custom Nameserver on Namecheap, Now my question are do I need to do some other settings/configuration or just wait until propagation will succeed.?

Thanks

Jess

Hi @jessp855, welcome to the community! 🙂

So far you did great!

Now, let's take care of some extra steps:

1. Go to your Domains panel
2. Click in DNS > Add DNS Hosting
3. Enter your domain name.
4. You should get two Nameservers.
5. Set those nameservers in your namecheap dashboard.
6. After you set your NS in namecheap, go to your gateway.
7. Under your hosting plan, click in "Settings"
8. And select your primary domain as the domain you want to use.
9. Wait a little to DNS to propagate (most of the time it's done in no time, but it can take up to 48 hours)

Hope it helps!
