Are you looking to connect your Namecheap domain with Hostinger in 2024? You’ve come to the right place! In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to point your Namecheap domain to your Hostinger hosting account. By following these simple instructions, you’ll be able to seamlessly link your domain to your hosting provider and get your website up and running in no time.
Before we dive into the process, let’s first understand why it’s essential to connect your domain with your hosting provider. When you purchase a domain from Namecheap, it’s like owning the address of your website. On the other hand, Hostinger provides the space and resources to store your website’s files and make it accessible on the internet. By connecting your domain with your hosting account, you ensure that when someone types your domain name into their browser, they are directed to your website hosted on Hostinger’s servers.
Now, let’s get started on how to connect your Namecheap domain with Hostinger:
Step 1: Sign in to Your Namecheap Account
Go to Namecheap’s website and log in to your account using your username and password.
Step 2: Access Your Domain List
Once you’re logged in, navigate to the “Domain List” section in your Namecheap account. Here, you’ll see a list of all the domains you’ve registered with Namecheap.
Step 3: Select the Domain You Want to Connect
Choose the domain that you want to point to your Hostinger hosting account. Click on the domain name to access its settings.
Step 4: Update Nameservers
In the domain settings, look for the “Nameservers” section. By default, Namecheap uses its own nameservers. You’ll need to change these to Hostinger’s nameservers. You can find the correct nameservers provided by Hostinger in your hosting account’s dashboard or by contacting their support team.
Step 5: Enter Hostinger’s Nameservers
Replace Namecheap’s default nameservers with Hostinger’s nameservers. Make sure to save the changes before exiting the settings.
