How to Register a DNS With GoDaddy

Register your DNS with GoDaddy to point your domain to your website.

GoDaddy is a company that provides domain name registration and hosting to customers. You can search for a domain name by typing the desired URL into the search box on the main page. The user may then follow the instructions to register the Web address, if it is currently available. The web host's "DNS" service must then be entered into the "Nameservers" section for the domain in the GoDaddy Account manager.

Instructions

1. Log in to GoDaddy and click on "Account Manager."

2. Select "Manage Domains" from the "Domain Names" menu.

3. Click on the domain name that you wish to edit.

4. Click "View/Modify Detail" from the "Host Summary" section.

5. Enter your domain server information under the "Set Hosts" section. Be sure to enter any associated IPs in the indicated area. Consult your Web hosting provider if you do not know the DNS information that you need to enter.

6. Click "OK."

Tips & Warnings

• It may take up to 48 hours for the domain name to point to your website after the DNS information has been registered with GoDaddy.
