for buy domain & hosting service 1'st see that this company have hosting server or not because if he has server, then he can give good and more services in cheap prices.when buy domain then he provide user name and password by which you can change some in your site. if you have any difficulty to change any think as change domain then you contact directly or by mail.
All you need to do is to change the Domain Name Server to the one provided to you by your hosting company, to do that you need to login to your domain account, select the domain name you want to host and look for the feature edit/modify/manage Name Server and change it. It can take from 24 to 72 hours for the DNS change to take effect in all countries.

@HostMID: Thanks, I have change DNS by Server which is provide by Hosting Company. Now What to do next?
Since you have changed the NS of your domain name and I will assume the effect has taken place, you should be able to login to your cPanel using the details provided to you by your hosting company. You should use the main domain name which is the domain name you have used when registering the hosting account. In order to login to your cPanel, you need to use the following URL: http://www.example.com/cpanel You should change (example.com) with your main domain name. In order to add an Addon domain, you can follow the steps provided here: http://hostmid.com/clients/knowledgebase/72/How-to-Add-an-Addon-Domain-to-Your-cPanel-Account.html It is also better to contact your hosting provider if you have any problems and they should be able to assist you.
@prclicks All the questions you are asking, your hosting provider and/or domain registrar should have been able to answer for you. Support is usually included with your web hosting plan, so asking on a forum rather than getting support from the company you are paying to provide you that support, just doesn't make much sense.
A hosting service is very much similar to owning a property to build a house on it. Without the property, the house would have nowhere to stand.
Thanks a lot @HostMID: for an absolute positive answer, I have done as you are saying but i have try to start ftp using host name, user name & pass but it require port too. I dont know my port number, I didn't get any information about PORT from hosting company. So where can I get my port number to start ftp.
It is inconvenient to contact customer service each time you need a password or email address changed. Reputable control panels will give you access to everything involved in running a website.
I would recommend using web design software such as Dreamweaver or equivalent. You can manage site login information in one place. Once your site is setup locally. It will maintain a sync with the files on your hosting server
