Changing your domain’s name servers is an important step when connecting your domain to your hosting.
If you purchased hosting from SiteChai, you’ll need to point your domain to their name servers to make your website live.
In this guide, we’ll show you exactly how to do it — step by step.
🌐 What Are Name Servers?
Name servers connect your domain name to your hosting server.
👉 In simple terms:
They tell the internet where your website is hosted.
Without correct name servers, your website will not load properly.
📌 Step 1: Get Your SiteChai Name Servers
After purchasing hosting from SiteChai, you will receive your name servers via:
- Email (Welcome Email)
- Client Area dashboard
They usually look like:
ns1.sitechai.com
ns2.sitechai.com
👉 You can purchase hosting and get your name servers here:

🔑 Step 2: Login to Your Domain Provider
Now go to the platform where you bought your domain, such as:
- GoDaddy
- Namecheap
- Dynadot
- Or even SiteChai itself
Login to your account and find your domain.
⚙️ Step 3: Open DNS / Name Server Settings
Inside your domain panel:
- Go to Domain Management
- Find DNS Settings or Name Server Settings
- Click Manage or Edit
🔄 Step 4: Replace Name Servers
You will see existing name servers (default ones).
👉 Replace them with SiteChai name servers:
ns1.sitechai.com
ns2.sitechai.com
- Remove old name servers
- Add new ones exactly
- Save changes
⏳ Step 5: Wait for Propagation
After updating, it takes time to apply globally.
- Usually: 5 minutes to 24 hours
- Sometimes up to 48 hours
👉 During this time, your site may not load properly — this is normal.
✅ Step 6: Verify Your Website
After propagation:
- Visit your domain
- Check if your website loads
If everything is correct, your domain is now connected to SiteChai hosting 🎉
