how to use godaddy domain in hostinger

To use your GoDaddy domain with Hostinger hosting, you need to point your domain to Hostinger’s servers. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

🔧 Step 1: Get Hostinger’s Nameservers

  1. Log in to your Hostinger account.
  2. Go to Websites > Manage next to the site you’re setting up.
  3. Scroll to Nameservers or find it under Accounts Details.
  4. You’ll see something like: ns1.dns-parking.com ns2.dns-parking.com

🌐 Step 2: Update Nameservers in GoDaddy

  1. Log in to your GoDaddy account.
  2. Go to Domains > click the domain name you want to use.
  3. Scroll to Nameservers and click Change.
  4. Choose Enter my own nameservers (advanced).
  5. Paste the two Hostinger nameservers: ns1.dns-parking.com ns2.dns-parking.com
  6. Click Save.

⏳ Step 3: Wait for DNS Propagation

  • DNS changes can take up to 24–48 hours to fully propagate worldwide.
  • During this time, your site might be temporarily unreachable.

✅ Step 4: Connect Domain in Hostinger

  1. Go back to Hostinger’s Dashboard.
  2. Go to Websites > Add Website if you haven’t done so.
  3. Enter your GoDaddy domain when prompted.
  4. Finish the setup (CMS install, email, SSL, etc.).

🔍 Optional: Verify with DNS Tools

Use a free tool like https://dnschecker.org to confirm your domain now points to the correct Hostinger nameservers.
