Connecting Your Domain (DNS Setup)

To make your domain work with your SiteDeploy hosting account, you must point your domain’s nameservers to SiteDeploy’s servers.

1. SiteDeploy Nameservers

Please set your domain’s nameservers to:
ns1.sitedeploy.com ns2.sitedeploy.com

This tells the internet where your website is hosted and allows your domain to load content from your SiteDeploy account.

2. Updating Nameservers: Step-by-Step Guides

 a. GoDaddy
  1. Log in to your GoDaddy Account.

  2. Click on Domains in your dashboard and select your domain.

  3. Scroll to Additional Settings and click Manage DNS.

  4. Under Nameservers, click “Change”.

  5. Select “Enter my own nameservers (advanced)”.

  6. Enter:

    • ns1.sitedeploy.com

    • ns2.sitedeploy.com

  7. Click Save.

 b. Namecheap
  1. Go to Namecheap.com and log in.

  2. Click Domain List, then click Manage next to your domain.

  3. In the Nameservers section, choose “Custom DNS”.

  4. Input:

    • ns1.sitedeploy.com

    • ns2.sitedeploy.com

  5. Click the green ✅ checkmark to apply changes.

 c. Google Domains
  1. Visit Google Domains.

  2. Click your domain name, then go to the DNS tab.

  3. Scroll to Custom name servers and click “Manage name servers.

  4. Add:

    • ns1.sitedeploy.com

    • ns2.sitedeploy.com

  5. Click Save.

d. Other Registrars

Look for a DNS or Nameservers section in your domain dashboard, and replace existing nameservers with:

ns1.sitedeploy.com ns2.sitedeploy.com

🔄 Note: It can take up to 24–48 hours for nameserver changes to fully propagate across the internet. During this time, your domain may appear offline or in transition—this is completely normal.
