Setup Hover Nameservers

You’ll have to change the nameservers on your web address or domain so that it connects to your website. In order to do this, you’ll need to log in to your Hover Control Panel. Once you’ve logged in, you’ll see a list of the domains that you own, with an “edit” option to the far right of each domain which will give you the option to “edit nameservers”. This will pop up a box where you’ll be able to enter your nameservers, which there are usually two of. In this case, we’ll be entering GreenGeeks’ nameservers to connect to your website, which is located or hosted on their servers. Nameserver 1 will be “ns1.greengeeks.net” and Nameserver 2 will be “ns2.greengeeks.net” then save the changes. It may take an hour or so for this to take effect across the internet, so be patient when trying to visit your website after making this change.

  1. Log in to your Hover Control Panel.

  2. Click “edit” to the far right of the domain to update.

  3. Choose “edit nameservers”.

  4. Change Nameserver 1 to “ns1.greengeeks.net”.

  5. Change Nameserver 2 to “ns2.greengeeks.net”.

  6. Click “save nameservers”.

  7. Wait an hour or so for the change to take effect.
