Quick answer
Point your domain to SiteHosts in a few clicks.
- Domains are your website address. Changes can take time to propagate, so allow up to 24 hours.
- If you update nameservers, keep your old host active until your site resolves correctly.
- For UK businesses, .co.uk and .uk are the most trusted extensions.
Key details
Nameservers control where your domain looks for website and email settings.
Changing them is the simplest way to connect a domain to SiteHosts.
Propagation may take a few hours depending on your registrar.
Step-by-step
- Copy your SiteHosts nameservers from the dashboard.
- Log in to your registrar and open nameserver settings.
- Replace the existing nameservers and save.
Quick checklist
- Verify nameservers or DNS records
- Keep WHOIS details up to date
- Enable auto-renew to avoid expiry
- Lock your domain after making changes
