How to Fully Host Your Domain with RentMy Hosting

March 4th, 2020 by

When you fully host with RentMy then there is no need to keep your existing web hosting plan. This transition often results in a savings. Follow these steps to point your domain to RentMy Hosting. These instructions apply regardless of where your domain is registered.

Step 1: Export or Backup Your Existing DNS Records

All DNS records on your existing name servers will be replaced or replicated on the RentMy Hosting DNS.

Make sure you have a text file or screen shot that shows each of the existing DNS records.

Step 2: Update Your Domain’s Name Servers

To delegate DNS management to RentMy Hosting, update your domain’s name servers to the following:

Name Server
NS1.RENTMYHOSTING.COM
NS2.RENTMYHOSTING.COM

Important: This update must be completed at your domain registrar (the service where you purchased your domain). Once updated, RentMy will manage all DNS records for your domain.

Note: Name server changes can take up to 48 hours to fully propagate across the internet.

📩 Step 3: Notify RentMy

After your name servers have been updated:

  • Email help@rentmy.co
  • Include your full domain name (e.g., yourdomain.com)
  • Share the DNS records saved during Step 1

⏳ Final Notes

  • DNS and name server changes may take 15–30 minutes to propagate, though in some cases it may take up to 48 hours.
  • During propagation, your domain may temporarily resolve to your old host or display inconsistent behavior.
