And the same goes for domains.
Domain registrars are usually best at registering domains, and it’s always the cheapest. However, if you buy their hosting, you usually won’t get as many features that you would have gotten from a hosting company, for the same price.

But many (Actually most) people do this, and pay more than the other “smart ones”.
And this is especially important if you have more websites. I have 15 websites, and they are all on my “BabyCroc” Hostgator account.

This saves me a lot. So if you plan on making money online or anything similar, you need to reduce your costs to a maximum, to have the highest ROI. (Return On Investment)

Anyways, here is how you do it:


1. Get yourself a hosting account that supports more than one website. ( A Reseller account, or anything similar to a “BabyCroc” account at hostgator)
2. Register your domain name. Preferably a .com, .org, .net, or the extension for your country. You can do so at domain registrar 1and1’s website.
3. Go to your hostgator control panel and click “Addon Domains”. Fill out the required fields.

4. Find your nameservers by looking at the bottom-left panel in your hostgator account. ( You also got these by email when you registered your hosting account.)
5. Choose “Transfer domain”, “change DNS settings” or anything similar depending on your domain registrar. This will take you to a screen that shows up some DNS settings/Name servers. (DNS is short for Domain Name System)

It will in most cases give you the option to fill out 2-10 fields, whereas only 1 is nessecary. I always fill in both of my hostgator domain servers.
6. Now all you need to do is to wait for approximately 48 hours to be able to use your hostgator account with your new domain!

*Note! The index of your new domain is located in the public_html folder, with the name you gave it. This is where you put your website files.
