Use our nameservers
Your website and email will work on our servers once your domain uses our nameservers. If you registered or transferred the domain with us, this is already done.
If your domain is registered somewhere else, log in to that provider and change the nameservers to:
| Nameserver | Hostname |
|---|---|
| Nameserver 1 | ns1.webcafe.co.za |
| Nameserver 2 | ns2.webcafe.co.za |
| Nameserver 3 | ns3.webcafe.co.za |
How long it takes
Nameserver changes usually show within a few hours, but can take up to 48 hours to reach every network. During that time some visitors may still see your old website or send email to your old provider.
Tip: create your email accounts in cPanel before you change the nameservers, so no email is lost.
Keeping your DNS somewhere else
If you'd rather keep your DNS with another provider (for example Cloudflare), point your records at our server instead. Open a ticket and we'll send you the exact records for your account.
Still stuck? Open a support ticket, email help@webcafe.co.za or call +27 87 654 8810.
