I currently have a provider that contracted with a domain and hosting, but since the site5 hosting has limited storage, they opted to buy another hosting which is godaddy. What I do not understand and I want to know if it is possible, is to know how I can use the domain that I have in site5, and that points to the hosting that I have in godaddy? I also have another question can you separate the domain and the hosting from the same provider (site5)? It's the first time I've worked with domains and paid hosting: /

hosting dominio godaddy

You can have the domain and the hosting separately. It is even recommended, especially when you have to change hosting for some reason.

To configure it you need two simple steps:

Step 1: In the hosting

You have to find out in the hosting (GoDaddy) in your case, which are the name servers .

It usually appears in the% c_c% section of cPanel. Or you can ask for technical support.

You can check this link , where they indicate the name servers, depending on what you have contracted with them.

Step 2: in the domain registrar

You have to indicate that your domain points to GoDaddy, by putting the name servers obtained in step 1.

There must be an option to put custom server names. Surely the name servers of the registrar will be there. You must delete those and put those of GoDaddy.

This image is from my recorder, but it can still give you an idea:

As to whether you can separate the domain and the hosting from the same provider, I do not see the possibility of doing it or what it would have, unless the provider has a company that manages the hosting and on the other hand another company that manages the domains. Even so they would be separated ...
