Domain/DNS Administration

Where should I register my domain name?

A Domain Name can purchased through lots of sites now. We currently use www.GoDaddy.com for all our domain name purchases and we highly recommend you use them to. Domain names through GoDaddy cost about $9.00 a year which is an excellent deal.

How long does it take before my domain name resolves?

Depending on the registrar it could take anywhere from 2 hours to 24 hours. You would need to ask them to be sure on their time frames.

What name servers should I use?

To use 68 Classifieds hosted edition you will need to use the following name servers:

  • NS.RACKSPACE.COM
  • NS2.RACKSPACE.COM

Changing your name servers at GoDaddy.com

1. Visit http://www.godaddy.com/default.aspx and login. 2. Hover over the “Domains” button and click “My Domains” 3. A new window opens (the Domain Manager) 4. Click on your domain name in the left column 5. Click on “Nameservers” in the horizontal menu bar 6. There should be a radio button with “I host my domains with another provider.” next to it. Click that. 7. Enter NS.RACKSPACE.COM and NS2.RACKSPACE.COM in the “Nameserver 1” and “Nameserver 2” fields 8. Click “OK”
