I will show you How to Change and Configuration HostGator DNS Records or Nameservers.
1. Change HostGator DNS Records
Automatically point the domain to a hosting account here or Manually set the Name Servers. I’ll show you how to do it both ways.
1.1 HostGator Account


ns1.hostgator.com
ns2.hostgator.com
- First Login Your portal.hostgator.com Account and The left-hand side and click on the Domains section.
- If you bought a Domain somewhere else and you want to transfer the registration to HostGator you can click up here on the right-hand side to do it as well.
- Click ‘More’ tab you can see additional information about the Domain.
- See top right-hand side Name Servers.
- Click on ‘Change’.
Now it will take 24 to 48 hours for your domain to update across the web. That’s called propagation. As soon as you change your Name Servers, you may not see the domain take effect immediately. Sometimes it will take a little bit of time.
1.2 cPanel


- First Login Your portal.hostgator.com Account
- Click Hosting tab.
- Next Click on Launch cPanel.
- Scroll down here on the right-hand side, You can see primary Name Server and secondary Name Server these and copy them.
