Updating Your Dns At Enom.com

The purpose of this tutorial is to teach you how to update your DNS (Domain Name Servers) settings at Enom.com.

As our new hosting client, you will need to point your domain name to our servers. If you have already purchased your domain name through Enom.com, you will need to go to their site, and make the changes necessary for your web site to be visible. You received our nameserver settings in the welcome email that was sent when you purchased your hosting package with us. There are two or more nameserver (NS) settings, and you must change all of them.

Let's begin by going to the Enom.com home page. Click on the LogIn in the upper right corner. This takes you to the Login screen, where you will enter your Login ID and Password, and then click the Login button. You are now logged in to your Enom.com account. Click on the Registered Domains link. Scroll down to where it says DNS Server Settings, and click on this link. This takes you to the Edit DNS servers screen. You can see the current DNS settings, and these are the ones that need to be changed to our hosting company. Erase and enter the correct DNS settings in the boxes, for Name Server 1, Name Server 2, and more if required. Click the Save button when you are finished. You will get a pop-up informing you that any change in DNS will take approximately 24 hours to propagate. It asks if you wish to continue. Click OK.

You can see the settings have been successfully updated, and your domain is now pointing to your new hosting account on our servers. Please remember that it can take 24 to 48 hours for your domain name to fully propagate after you make these changes. When finished, click on the log-out button.

This ends this tutorial. You now know how to update your DNS settings by changing them to our name servers, when your domain name is registered with Enom.com
