Learn how to point your domain to a new hosting provider!
In this video, we teach you how to connect an existing domain you own to a different hosting company with a few easy steps.
This is useful if you already have a domain that you own that is with one hosting company and want to switch to a hosting plan that better suits you compared to the one you currently have.
For this example, we point an existing domain on Google Domains to a new hosting plan on SiteGround. SiteGround offers great hosting plans and provides an easy connection for existing domains, followed by a WordPress installation straight after.
Sign up for SiteGround here:

Happy to hear our video helped! Thanks so much for watching.
I have a channel account. and wonder if I can host free domains. I was able to set up the account by adding a domain. have the database set up. but it's still not publishing.
Pointing and transferring are two different things: is that right?
Correct, Lisa. Pointing is connecting your domain to a web host. The domain and hosting plan can be on two different hosting providers too.
Transferring means moving the domain you purchased on one provider and adding it to your account on another.
Hope this helps!
Very helpful and easy way to explain. One question here, if my emails are with Google and after changing NS, will my email stop?
Thanks im with HostingIreland but bought a domain with squarespace
Can I point multiple domains from Google to various wordpress sites within siteground?
Is there a video on adding MX records? Once I did, my Gmail aliases stopped working.
Great Video. Thank you so much for this. I have a google site that I created and am quite happy with. Do you have a video on how to copy that site so Site Ground can host it?
Hey there, thanks for watching our video :)
Sounds like you would like to migrate your website to Site Ground. We do have a video to help guide you with that process.
Here it is:

Please let us know if you have any questions regarding this. Thanks!
when i do this i get website is under development. Does this mean it is in the process of propagating?
How about pointing your domain to 2 different servers - one to point to the email server and the other to point to the website sever. Is it achievable?
did you do it?
Liked the video. Can't I do the same thing with WordPress as SiteGround?
I did this but I think it messed up my MX records. The DNS section of google domains is formatted a bit differently now. Any update?
In this case please get in touch with your server admins and they can give you an exact solution.
Hi Thanks for the directions. At 10:05, you showed the Google Domain Name server area. What do I do if the option "Use custom name servers" is not available?
Hi Lasia, thanks for checking out our video!
It appears Google might have changed the menu around a little bit. Do you see a 'Custom name servers' tab like in the screenshot below?
imgur.com/a/Wz0zJoG
If that tab is available, you can click on that, then enter your custom nameservers and save the settings when you've finished.
Please let me know if this helps!
@@BrainstormForce Awesome, thanks for the help! I found it. :-)
@@lasiaroper9597 Thanks for letting me know! Happy to help :)
Okay I already have a wordpress site fully designed on wordpress(with elementor)using dot com. Now I want to point my new domain do uk using the same site... how could we do it?
NDRS, depending on how you want your website and domain to be setup, you might need to change the A record or CNAME record for your domain for it to point to your existing website.
Can I point a name I just purchased today to a new host provider. Such as Porkbun to Bluehost. Can I do this the same day I purchase it, or do I need to wait 60 days. I am pointing not transferring?
Hi Lisa! Thanks for watching our video :)
Pointing your domain means you are connecting that domain to a web host. The domain and hosting can be purchased from two separate providers too. So you can buy your domain through one provider and connect it with a hosting plan on another.
Transferring would mean moving the domain name you purchased from your account on one provider and adding it to your account on another.
Hope that makes sense!
To answer your question, yes you should be able to point your domain which you just purchased to a new host provider without any issues. The steps would be similar to the ones shown in the video. For example here is the documentation provided by BlueHost to do the same procedure. Hope this helps!

Hi, help😢 I followed your steps all the way to the end but when I typed my domain on the web my website doesn’t pop like yours did.It’s been 3 days
Hello Sin, sorry to hear that your website is not showing up as expected. Could you please confirm what hosting service you are using and where your domain is registered?
I already have my domain name and din't have to create a new one. Where could I found my DNS?
Your name servers (provided by your domain provider) act as the DNS servers.
why waste time on setting up hosting when the tutorial is about pointing?
