<div align="justify">Once you’ve '''registered a domain name''' and '''set up your hosting account''', it's necessary to make the domain name '''point to the hosting account'''. This is done to make sure that when yourdomain.com is typed into a browser, your site comes up.

To make everything work, you need to tell your domain name registrar '''to point your domain to the nameservers of your hosting company'''. The nameservers changes are not immediate. Usually the propagation may take up to 48 hours to complete throughout DNS machines all over the Internet so that every person in the World can access your site. Once the propagation is completed the screen at '''http://yourdomain.com''' will show the default page of your hosting company.</div>
