When changing the domain of your site, it is crucial to update the name servers on GoDaddy if you are using their service. Proper configuration ensures that your domain functions correctly and directs traffic appropriately.
Important: Changing the domain is not automatic. To complete this process, contact our support team and send the domain you wish to use. We will create the DNS zone with the new domain, enabling you to point to the correct name servers. For more details, refer to this article: Domain change: How can I proceed to change my domain?
To proceed with this step, you must have a GoDaddy account with the domain already purchased. If you do not yet have a GoDaddy account, click here to create one and purchase your domain.
