Okay, here's the next video, hope you like it.
Okay, what we need to do now is link your new domain name to your new webspace, so we’re going to link from GoDaddy to Host Gator. So first of all, go to GoDaddy.com and they’ll bring you to the homepage here and then just put in your username and password and click go. Once you put your password in, it will bring you to the screen here so just head over to word says domain hover over that don’t click it, just hover and then move down to my domains.
And then it open you to the list of your domains. If it’s first time you're being here, you're only going to have one here. As you can see I've got quite a few already. So, what you'll need to do is click on your domain. Now, this is a bit here which is really, really important. What you'll need to do is type the name service that were given to you from Host Gator which will be in your welcome email and we need to change them here so all we do is click on one of this.
Basically now, there are three options first one is part to name service, hosting name service or custom name service, you're going to host your domains elsewhere and that’s the option we want. Now, you can see this particular website minority is settle to direct the domain name to Host Gator so I've already got the new name—so with the details there. So, what you'll need to do is change the name service here which at the moment will be linked to GoDaddy and replace them with the name server details you’re given by Host Gator and you need to do it on the name server one and name server two and when you’ve done that, just click okay.
Now, what they're doing here, they’re trying to sell you some web space so basically we can just click No Thanks. We’ve already got some. Okay, it’s just confirming that the changes have been submitted. Please allow a few minutes for the changes to take effect, okay. So now, you’ve changed your name service and you're going to have to wait a while for them to filter through properly, that simple thing you’ve just changed basically means now that when people typed in your new domain name, it will point them to the web space at Host Gator rather than web space at GoDaddy which you don’t actually have. And like I said, it might take a while to go through so you're going to have to just keep testing it until your web space appears.
