How to Point DNS / Nameservers

Updated 2024-08-221 min read

Hosting documentation. Account access is coming soon. Always use the server details and nameservers assigned to your own account.

When your new account is provisioned with Let.com and you need to either connect your domain to Wordpress, or simply point it after your website is uploaded, a DNS (Domain Name System) change is required at your registrar.  If you ordered a domain with your hosting account, the nameservers will fill in automatically.  If you purchased your domain with another company like GoDaddy, Namecheap, Yahoo Domains, etc...you will need to make the nameserver change at your registrar where the domain was purchased.

 

To find your nameservers, either reference your welcome email when you signed up, or check the information tab from https://account portal (coming soon).  In the two examples below, we can see the nameservers are:

the nameserver assigned to your account
the nameserver assigned to your account

Next you will need to login to your domain registrar and apply the two nameservers to the domain you wish to point to your Let.com account.  Once set, DNS propagation will need to take place and it may be up to 12-48 hours before it completes.

Where do I find the correct nameservers for my account?

Check the welcome email or the information area in the customer portal. Use your account’s values rather than assuming the article’s example applies.

Where do I update a domain registered with another company?

Sign in to the registrar where the domain was purchased and update its nameserver settings there.

Will the new nameservers be used everywhere immediately?

No. DNS propagation takes time after the change. The propagation guide explains why networks may still use cached records. Propagation.
