How to Change Name Servers with BigRock

 

While HostGator cannot modify DNS at third-party registrars on your behalf, we can provide you with instructions on how to do so. Here's how you can change your name servers at BigRock.com.

Step 1: Find the Name Servers for your Hosting Account

The first step is to find out which name servers you should use for your HostGator hosting account; this varies by server and type of hosting. For instructions on how to find your name servers, please read the following article:

Step 2: Update your Name Servers

  1. Sign in to your BigRock control panel. 
  2. You will now be taken to a page that lists all of your purchases on our system.
  3. Select the domain name for which you want to modify the name servers.
  4. In the Domain Registration section, select the Name Servers option.
  5. Update the existing name servers with your HostGator name servers.
  6. Click on the Update Name Servers.
  7. Your name server has been successfully updated.
Once you have made updates at the registrar, there will be 24-48 hours of DNS propagation time, during which your website and email may not be available.

HostGator customers can change their domain DNS within the cPanel interface. For more information, please see the related articles:
