If I Buy A Domain Name From Godaddy.com How Do I Make It Point To My Site?

February 9th, 2010 by Cheap Web Hosting Leave a reply »

I’ve always bought domain names from the same site that hosts my site. But if I buy a domain from godaddy.com, how would I make it go to my website thats hosted on another site? Can you do it from the godaddy website? I just want to know if its complicated or not.

  1. There’s a control panel thing where you enter the “domain name server”. I have three domains I bought through godaddy but use two different web hosts (none of them are GoDaddy). Your web hosting company control panel or FAQ will tell you the name server to enter in the GoDaddy domain name control panel. It can be a series of numbers like 92.211.35.115 or it can be letters, like zeus.host.com. Within a day or two then your new domain will be “propogated” across the Internet, pointing to the name server you entered.

    As you may know a domain name is just a name, not a real website. If you are going to create your website: 1- Buy a domain name. A domain name is a name you want to call your website. To get a domain name, you have to pay an annual fee to a registrar for the right to use that name. 2- Buy a web hosting service to provide your online space and enable you to get your website online at your purchased domain name.
    If you want to start your website I recommend purchase your domain and hosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some hosting services offer this gift today.
