Park a Domain Registered with GoWebsite

Parking your domain when it's registered with GoWebsite is easy. Your domain's nameservers are likely already set to Default or Standard in your account if you're registered with us, but if not, you'll need to set them. Once your nameservers are set to default/standard, you'll need to then change the A record in your account.

  • Log in to your GoWebsite account.
  • Next to Domains, click Manage.

How you now park your domain will depend on the view of your account:
