Point your domain to HostGator by updating your domain’s nameservers at Hostinger.
Point your domain to HostGator
To point your domain to HostGator, you need to complete two main steps:
-
Gather your HostGator nameservers: you can find them in the Welcome email, Customer Portal, or cPanel
-
Copy the given nameservers, and specify them in your domain’s DNS zone
Once you do that, DNS propagation will start. This process can take up to 24 hours. During this time, it’s expected that your website won’t work, but give it some time, and it will get online soon.
That’s it! Now you know how to point your domain to HostGator 😊
NOTES
-
If your domain is pointed elsewhere by NS records, your DNS zone is also managed from there
