Locating the Hostinger nameservers

Updated over a week ago

To properly connect your domain with Hostinger web hosting services, the domain must be pointed to your hosting plan according to your hosting type. The recommended method is to use Hostinger nameservers. This way, you can manage your DNS zone at Hostinger.

To change nameservers, you need to log in to your domain provider’s website (where you bought the domain from). For example, at Hostinger, you'll find this option on the DNS / Nameservers page. For other registrars, like Cloudflare, the process will be similar — look for a settings area related to nameservers in your Cloudflare account dashboard.

Web and Cloud Hosting

If you have a Web, WordPress (legacy), or Cloud hosting plan, use the following nameservers:

  • ns1.dns-parking.com

  • ns2.dns-parking.com

You can verify this information by navigating to the hPanel → Websites → Dashboard → Plan Details page:

It is enough to set only the nameserver values if your domain service provider does not require the nameserver IP addresses.

If your domain provider doesn't allow changing the nameservers, or if you prefer to keep your current nameservers, you can use an alternative method:

VPS Hosting

Whether your domain is purchased at Hostinger or elsewhere, the easiest method is to keep your current nameservers and point the domain to the IP address of your VPS using the A record.

To create your own nameservers, you will need to manually set up the DNS zone on your VPS.

cPanel Hosting

To verify nameservers for your domain, do the following:

  1. Navigate to the hPanel Home

  2. Click on the Manage button next to your cPanel plan

  3. Scroll down on the Hosting Dashboard page to find the Nameservers and IP address section

Alternatively, check the values by expanding the sections below 👇

cPanel Silver and cPanel Gold

If you are using a cPanel (legacy) hosting plan, point your domain to the following nameservers:

  • cdns1.main-hosting.eu

  • cdns2.main-hosting.eu

Legacy plans are no longer available for purchase

cPanel Reseller

If you are using a cPanel reseller (legacy) hosting plan, point your domain to the following nameservers:

  • ns1.boxsecured.com

  • ns2.boxsecured.com

Legacy plans are no longer available for purchase

Niagahoster

If you are using a cPanel hosting plan at Niagahoster, point your domain to the following nameservers:

  • ns1.niagahoster.com

  • ns2.niagahoster.com

After changing your domain's nameservers, some people may experience temporary delays when visiting your website in the next 24 hours until DNS propagation is completed. This is a normal process, and most of the time the update is much faster.
