What is Private DNS?

Modified on Wed, 26 Nov at 3:01 PM

The Private DNS allows you to have custom nameservers that you can use with your domain names. With it, you can point all your website’s domains to unique nameservers based on your domain names:


ns1.yourdomainname.com 
ns2.yourdomainname.com 

To be eligible for the service, the domain name on which these custom name servers would be based must be registered with SiteGround. Once registered, the custom name servers can be used on any website for which there is active hosting with SiteGround, regardless of where the domain is registered.


The Private DNS service is offered for free to GoGeek and Cloud hosting plan owners.
