Point your domain to HostRiser (nameservers)

To make your domain load your HostRiser website and email, point it to our nameservers.

Our nameservers

ns1.hostriser.com
ns2.hostriser.com

How to change them

  1. Log in to the company where you registered your domain (for example Namecheap, GoDaddy, Dynadot or Whogohost).
  2. Open the domain's settings and find Nameservers (sometimes called DNS servers).
  3. Choose Custom nameservers.
  4. Replace the existing entries with ns1.hostriser.com and ns2.hostriser.com, and remove any others.
  5. Save your changes.

The change usually works within a few hours but can take up to 24 to 48 hours worldwide. See How long does DNS take to update?

Tip: Once your domain points to us, your free SSL certificate is issued automatically. No action needed.
