How can I forward my domain via nameservers (DNS)?

Connect your domain via nameservers (“DNS forwarding”) to use the domain with your Jimdo website, while keeping the domain hosting with an external provider.

Tip : Connect your domain via nameservers if you don't have an email account. However, if you already have an email account with an external provider and wish to continue using it, we recommend using a CNAME forwarding. 

Prerequisite

Before connecting your domain via nameservers, please make sure to add your domain to your Jimdo website first. For more information, take a look at the following help article:

Changing nameservers

Use the following information to set up the nameservers of your domain at your current domain provider:

ns11.jimdo.com
ns12.jimdo.com

After changing the nameservers, it can take up to 24 hours to fully connect your domain to your Jimdo website.

Note: If you have problems setting up the nameservers, we recommend taking a look at your domain provider's help center or contacting them directly, as our Support Teams can't provide support for external tools.
