How to Change Name Servers at Wild West Domains

While HostGator cannot modify DNS at third‑party registrars on your behalf, we can provide clear guidance on how to change DNS at Wild West Domains. The steps below will help you update your Wild West Domains name servers correctly.

Wild West Domains provides services through resellers and does not allow non‑reseller customers to register domains directly. If a WHOIS search shows Wild West Domains as the registrar, the domain is most likely registered through one of its many resellers.

Step 1: Find your hosting account information

The first step is identifying the correct HostGator name servers for your hosting account; these vary by server and hosting type. For instructions on how to find your DNS, please read the following article

Step 2: Change name servers at Wild West Domains

You will need to visit the website or contact the reseller where your domain was registered to modify your domain DNS settings. Since Wild West Domains provides an API to resellers, each reseller’s website can differ significantly, making universal instructions challenging.

Wild West Domain resellers using an API

When a reseller uses a custom API, they have full control over the website and user experience, meaning the workflow may vary drastically. Because of this, we cannot provide step‑by‑step instructions for these types of resellers. You will need to contact the reseller directly or check their documentation for the exact steps to change your name servers.
