Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive, step-by-step guide on configuring your domain's nameservers to point to Esadax's servers after registering your domain with GoDaddy. By following these instructions, you can ensure that your website and email services are successfully hosted by Esadax's reliable infrastructure.

Steps to Set Up Shared Hosting Nameservers

1. Prerequisites

• Ensure you have an active GoDaddy account with the domain registered under it.
• Verify that you have administrative access to the domain's DNS settings.

2. Access Your GoDaddy Account

• Log in to your GoDaddy account using your credentials (email and password).

3. Navigate to Domain Settings

• Once logged in, navigate to the DNS settings for your domain:
  • Go to Domain Manager.
  • Select your domain from the list of managed domains.
  • Click on Manage DNS to access the configuration interface.

4. Configure Nameservers

• In the DNS management interface:
  • Click on "Enter my own nameservers".
  • Enter the following nameserver addresses provided by Esadax:

    ns1.esadax.com
    ns2.esadax.com
    

  • Save your changes after entering the nameservers.

5. Verify DNS Configuration

• After saving, your domain should automatically propagate to Esadax's servers within 24-48 hours.
• To ensure everything is working correctly:
  • Check that your website resolves to Esadax's servers by visiting your domain name.
  • Confirm that email services (if enabled) are functioning properly.

6. Troubleshooting Tips

• If issues arise after configuring the nameservers, follow these troubleshooting steps:
  • Ensure that you entered the correct nameserver addresses as provided by Esadax.
  • Verify that your DNS settings are not overridden by other services (e.g., third-party DNS providers).
  • Allow sufficient time for propagation before testing the configuration.
