Setting Up Your Name Servers

The process for setting up your name servers depends on the company you bought your domain name from. Check with your domain name registrar for specific instructions.

The default nameservers for your hosting account depend on the day you set up your hosting. Use this list to determine your default nameservers:

After January 31, 2007

ns5.secureserver.net
ns6.secureserver.net

November 15, 2006 – January 30, 2007

ns1.secureserver.net
ns2.secureserver.net

December 15, 2005 – November 14, 2006

ns3.secureserver.net
ns4.secureserver.net

Before December 14, 2005

ns1.secureserver.net ns2.secureserver.net

OR

wsc1.jomax.net wsc2.jomax.net

NOTE: Remember that it usually takes about 4-8 hours for .COM and .NET domains and about 24-48 hours for all other domain extensions before name servers on other networks are able to access the information after the central registry gets it. This period is referred to as the propagation period.
