Exactly what the title says: I need help getting my domain name registrar "connected" to my web host so i can start working on my site. PLEASE PLEASE help me. am willing to pay, Thanks!
i bought the domain at name.com, and my webhost is digidotz. That'd be fantastic if you could help me!
You have to find the nameservers at your host digidotz. I believe they are: ns1.digidotz.com ns2.digidotz.com Now go to your registrar name.com edit the settings of the domain you want the nameservers to be changed, look for that setting and enter the nameservers of digidotz. That should do the trick.
Hey, thanks for helping me out, I've already tried that, but when I click 'Edit Name Servers' my domain registrar has 4 nameserver names like that, so do I leave those 4 and then just add the new ones to that?

Just don't fill in. Fill ns1.digidotz.com and ns2.digidotz.com. Keep the other empty. It will take upto 24 hours, for the changes to take effect.
Yeah, delete the one prefilled, and enter those two. ns1.digidotz.com ns2.digidotz.com leave the 3rd and 4th ones blank, and wait 24 hours... also your webhost should give you an email, or something with details on how to set it up.
Tip: if you want to check if it has worked, use a proxy to access your domain name. They're updated very frequently and will show the changes much sooner then your regular browser will.
