How to Verify Domain Ownership

Adding or editing TXT records in the DNS zone via a control panel

Updated over 5 months ago

You should own a domain to use it with Hostinger services for security reasons. If your domain is located in a different Hostinger account - all you need to do is add a TXT record to verify the domain.

Step 1 - Receive a TXT Record

Copy the TXT record you received. The screen you receive TXT record might look like this:

Step 2 - Add a TXT Record

Go to your domain’s DNS zone and add a TXT record with the following value:

Name (Host)

TXT value

TTL

@

the value that you copied on a previous step

900

NOTE:

  • If your domain is pointing elsewhere by NS records, your DNS Zone management is moved to the provider you pointed the domain to and should be managed from there.

When you update your domain's DNS zone, you will need to wait up to 24 hours until changes are fully propagated.

Step 3 - Add the Website to Your Hosting Plan

After propagation is completed, you will be able to add the website to your hosting plan without any issues.
