Then what If I wish to just use my own nameserver, how should I do so if I'm just hosting a website, not reseller?

[BMR777]

If you have a host that is providing hosting for you then you can use their nameservers they provide to you so you can use your domain with their hosting.

Then you mean unless we have our own resellers, we can't have our own nameservers?

[BMR777]

Well, if you want your nameservers to appear to be from your own domain then yes, I think that is the only way to have it, unless you contact your host ahead and have this done. But for just using the domain you can use the host's nameservers. There is no need for custom nameservers.

Then how to have it??

[BMR777]

Why do you need custom nameservers anyway? No one will see them. :)

Just interested to know. But it would be more fun if we could use our own =P
