    Sorry if this is a really simple question but I'm just getting started on my first site.

    I bought a domain name from netregistry.com.au and I want to host it on Host Gator.

    How do I go about doing this?

    Any help is greatly appreciated,

    Thank you in advance

    1.First add that domain to your host gator capnel .You can see a add domain icon .Then you will get 2 name server .It will look like ns1234.hostgator.com or ns1234.websitewelcome.com

    2.now login to your domain control panel and find dns setting .There you need to submit 2 name servers in 2 different field..

    let me know if you have questions?

    1. Purchase hosting package from hostgator
    2. Change DNS in your domain control panel to hostgator nameserver
    3. save the change and it until it applied.
