    Do you have a web host yet? If so, they will have provided you with DNS server information (probably 2 addresses). Just log into your registrar (where you bought the domain) and set your DNS entries to those servers

    In their 'welcome' email, you should find your DNS server info

    You will also have to upload your website, if you wish to see it.
