What is the difference between a domain name and web hosting?
A domain name is your website's address (e.g., www.modifyhosting.com), while web hosting is the service that stores your website’s files and makes it accessible online.

You can register a domain through a domain registrar by searching for an available name and purchasing it for a specific duration, usually a year or more.
Can I transfer my domain to another provider?
Yes, most domains can be transferred to another provider. You need to unlock your domain, get an authorization code, and follow the new provider’s transfer process
How do I connect my domain to my hosting service?
You need to update your domain’s nameservers (DNS) to point to your hosting provider’s servers. Set the nameservers to:
- dns1.modifyhosting.com
- dns2.modifyhosting.com
Where can I update my domain’s nameservers?
You can update your nameservers in the control panel of your domain registrar (e.g., GoDaddy, Namecheap, Google Domains). Look for the DNS or Nameservers settings and replace the existing entries with the ones provided.
How long does it take for nameserver changes to take effect?
DNS changes typically take effect within a few hours but can take up to 24-48 hours to fully propagate worldwide.
