Changing your nameserver settings for a third-party host IP address

GoDaddy:

GoDaddy is a US based service ideal for registering global domains such as .com or .net. They always have great offers, and their .info domains are the cheapest domains available at less than £1 for the initial year. They offer a dashboard for changing your DNS settings and email forwarding for all types of domains all included in the registration fee.

To update the nameserver setttings log into GoDaddy, go to 'My Account' and click on Domain Manager

Select the domain to be updated

Hover over Namservers and select Set Nameservers

Select 'I have specific nameservers...' and enter the names in the spaces provided [nameservers illustrated below are for WebHostingpad, the hosting service that I currently use]. You must obtain the correct nameserver for your hosting service.

As mentioned on the domain_forwarding article, changing the nameservers will redirect both the website and the email for this domain at the new host server.
