In order to host your website with a Web Hosting Company, you will need to obtain the Name Servers for your Domain Name, to point your domain name to the Name Servers provided by your Web Hosting Company. Follow the steps below to Manage your Name Servers -

  1. Contact your Web Hosting Company and find out `from` them the Name Servers you need to use.

    If you have bought Web Hosting for your domain name through Netdomainindia.com, then you need to set the Name Servers as specified by Netdomainindia.com.
  2. Login to your Control Panel and search for the domain name.
  3. Click on the Domain Name for which you want to Modify Name Servers.
     
  4. Click on the Modify Name Server button. Feed in the Name Servers you want (up to 13 name servers*) and click Submit.

    If at this step you get an error stating Name Server is not yet registered, then this implies that the Name Servers you are submitting have not been registered with the Registry. Please contact your Web Hosting Company and ask them to provide Name Servers that are valid and registered with the Registry.

IMPORTANT

  • If the Domain Name is Locked, you will have to first Unlock this Domain Name.

  • *.UK domain names support only allow upto 10 Name Servers. Therefore, you can not add more than 10 Name Servers for your .UK domain name.
     

  • Upon modifying your domain name's Name Servers, your website would begin appearing in a web browser, after about 24 to 48 hours (provided your Web Hosting package is properly setup and you have uploaded the content of your website). This is a standard time-frame required for a process called as DNS Propagation to complete Worldwide. This process is not controlled by any one ISP/company and therefore it can not be hastened.
     

  • If you wish to modify/delete a Name Server of a .EU/.UK domain name, which appears to be the Child Name Server of the same .EU/.UK domain name, then you can not do so `from` this interface. This action is only possible `from` the Manage Child Name Server interface.

    If you wish to modify/delete the Name Server ns1.yourdomainname.eu of yourdomainname.eu or ns1.yourdomainname.uk of yourdomainname.uk, then you will not be able to do so `from` this interface. This action is permissible `from` the Manage Child Name Server interface only.
