Enabling default nameservers
Last Updated: September 11, 2025
You can enable default nameservers in your account settings. This is a very useful service for parking domains or pointing them to a VPS or reseller hosting account.
Enabling default nameservers
- Log into your name.com account.
 - 
Click on the User icon (
), located at the top right, open the drop down menu and click Settings.
 - Click on Default Nameservers on the left hand side, under General. 
 - Enter the nameservers, one at a time, into the proper field and click the Add Nameserver button.
 
Note: You should make sure that the nameservers are properly configured. If they are not, it could cause domain registrations to fail.
