Step 3:




On the edit page you will notice the "Server Types" -- Yours will most likely be set as Namecheap Default. You will want to select the bottom one where it says "Custom" -- Right below that is where you can then enter the Nameservers where you want your domain to be pointed to. In this case we want to point them to the Wealthy Affiliate Servers.

Enter:
ns1.mywahosting.com
ns2.mywahosting.com

Be Sure to Click SAVE after you enter the info.
The transfer can take up to 48 hours, so please be patient.
After you have clicked save, you can look at Step 2 to make sure that it is set to look as the picture I posted.

This process is done the same way as before, but with the new NameCheap dashboard, some new users might get confused with the old training videos.

If you have any questions regarding DNS redirects, please feel free to contact me or comment below.

Ok John. I don't have any immediate plans but I do have only URL that is not a key word and I haven't begun to build it. I have to decide if I want to eat the $10 and get another domain or not.

Your domain name doesn't have to have your keywords in it. It just needs to be relevant to your niche. So buying another one would be up to you.

Thanks John it is relevant. I had a URL that was not relevant in a siterubix subdomain but with some help it was transferred to a reievant Namecheap .com. One step at a time.

Good to hear. Well, when you are ready, if you didn't redirect it yet.. Now you have a guide to do so! =)

Yes I have it redirected but not without manual help from NameCheap.
2 times I could not get past an error.

But all is well and thanks for the info.
