How to set up/point DNS for web hosting?

This can be easily done from your hosting control panel. Make sure the DNS info is correct at the domain registrar side before you point to the hosting servers.

You need to point the nameservers correctly to the IP address of the hosting server so that the domain resolves and your website is online.

First you would need to assign IPs to NS1 and NS2 DNS on your VPS or dedicated server, or (if you are using shared hosting) get the DNS IPs from your hosting provider.

Then you would need to take that information to your domain registrar, and enter it in your domain name settings with them.

Allow 24-48 hours for the changes to fully propagate and traffic should resolve to your website.

You can do a WHOIS check after you make the changes to see if they have propagated.

There are a few ways to do it:
1) you can add A record to point the IP to your domain name
2) You can create separate nameservers like ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com and Add the nameservers on your domain registrar end and add the DNS from your domain itself.
