How to change nameserver of domain?

Hi,

How to change nameserver of domain?

First you would get a new account with us – and then transfer all of your website files.

Once that is done, you would need to update your domain name’s DNS/nameservers (with the company that registered your domain). That’s all there is to it.

After your domain is completely pointing to your new hosting account, you could then safely cancel your old host.

We setup all accounts within hours of receiving payment (generally much sooner). Once you’ve update your domain name’s nameservers – it takes about 24-72 hours for your domain name to start working with your new hosting account.

2. Select the database you wish to manage from the drop-down menu on the left

3. Click on the Operations tab in the top menu of your phpMyAdmin

4.  At the bottom of the page you will see the collation option. You can now select a collation from the drop down menu and click on the Go button.
