How to Update DNS Nameservers

Learn how to update DNS nameservers to point your domain to our hosting servers.

Updating DNS Nameservers

Nameservers are essential for directing your domain to the correct hosting server.

What are Nameservers?

Nameservers are like the internet's phone book, telling browsers where to find your website. Our nameservers are:

ns1.bhost.com
ns2.bhost.com

How to Update Nameservers

For New Domains:

  1. Purchase domain through our system
  2. Nameservers are automatically set
  3. No action required

For Existing Domains:

  1. Log in to your domain registrar's control panel
  2. Navigate to DNS or Nameserver settings
  3. Replace existing nameservers with:
    ns1.bhost.com
       ns2.bhost.com
  4. Save changes

Propagation Time

DNS changes typically take 24-48 hours to fully propagate worldwide. During this time:

  • Some visitors may see old site
  • Some may see new site
  • This is normal during propagation
