Setting Up Your Domain

After purchasing hosting, you need to point your domain to our servers. This guide covers the complete process.

Option 1: Update Nameservers (Recommended)

This is the easiest method and gives you full control through CyberPanel.

Steps:

  • Log in to your domain registrar (GoDaddy, Namecheap, etc.)
  • Find the DNS or Nameserver settings
  • Replace existing nameservers with ours:
  • - ns1.webhostnet.in
  • - ns2.webhostnet.in
  • Save changes (propagation takes 24-48 hours)

Option 2: Update A Record

If you want to keep your current nameservers, you can point just the A record.

Steps:

  • Log in to your domain registrar
  • Go to DNS Management
  • Find the A record for @ (root domain)
  • Update it to point to: 65.108.3.177
  • Also add/update www A record to: 65.108.3.177
  • Save changes

Verify Domain Setup

After DNS changes propagate, verify your domain is working:

bash
ping yourdomain.com

The IP address should show 65.108.3.177

DNS propagation can take up to 48 hours. Be patient!
