How to point your domain

You have two options — full delegation (nameservers) or surgical change (A record). Both explained.

Option A — Delegate nameservers (recommended)

Changing nameservers (NS) at your registrar means we manage all DNS — A, MX, TXT, CNAME — from one panel. Recommended for most customers.

Log in to the admin panel at your registrar (wherever you bought the domain), find "Nameservers" or "DNS Servers", and paste:

ns1.hostika-bg.com
ns2.hostika-bg.com

Save. The change propagates worldwide within 24 hours, usually within an hour.

Option B — Surgical A-record change

If you want to keep DNS at your registrar (e.g. Cloudflare for WAF / CDN), make these changes:

A     @       45.150.111.37
A     www     45.150.111.37
MX    @       mail.hostika-bg.com    priority 10

(Your account IPs are confirmed by our team at provisioning — above is an example.) A-record changes take effect in minutes.

How to verify it's live

In a terminal: dig +short your-domain.com or online: dnschecker.org. It should return our IP. Once it shows up there, it shows up for browsers.

SSL certificate

The Let's Encrypt certificate is issued automatically the moment DNS points at us and our server sees a valid hostname. Usually 5–10 minutes after DNS propagation.
