If you update your name servers you're changing the direction your domain points from its existing server to a new one. To do this you need to complete the following.
- Log in to your Domain Management area by entering your username and password in the 'Members Login' area to the right of each page. Or go directly to https://www.malrindomains.com/manage.
- Select My Domains.
- Click on the domain name you wish to update.
- Click the Manage DNS button as shown below.
- This will ask for a Primary and Secondary Nameserver. The name servers will probably be in the form of ns1.yourhost.com.au and ns2.yourhost.com.au.
If you are unsure of your name servers, please log a support ticket.
- Click Update. Our system will save your new details. If you require further information, please contact us.
Redelegation usually takes 24-72 hours to be visible on the web.
You must enter at least two nameservers for your domain for it to be active.
Protect your web presence:
Have you considered registering your .com, .com.au, .net.au, .co.nz variants of your domain? The deciding factor usually depends on how serious you are about Protecting Your Online Value. Ask yourself whether it would disturb you if a competitor registered these domains? Our easy to use and reliable Web and Email Forwarding services allow you to point as many domains as you want to your website.
Web with benefits:
Another benefit of registering multiple domains is the greater probability of being located on Search Engine listings. An interesting fact is that many Search Engines now feature region specific searches. You can perform a generic search, or you can select the 'Search Australia Only' option.
How the search works is simple; an 'Australian Only' search may prioritise addresses that end in '.au'; a 'New Zealand Only' search may prioritise addresses that end in '.nz'. To guarantee your website is listed and accessed by both regions you will need to have both domain names registered.
In contrast to the above, neither the '.au' nor the '.nz' domains will stand a chance of competing against the '.com', or rather the TLD name space, if someone submits a generic search with no regions specified.
If you currently conduct business in other countries, or one day plan to expand then we recommend securing your country specific domains now. |
