Important Notes
Make sure your DNS records are set up correctly at the new provider before switching nameservers.
During propagation, your site may go down temporarily if misconfigured.
Example
You are moving DNS management to VergeCloud, and they give you:
delhi.ns.vergedns.com
goa.ns.vergedns.com
You’d update your nameservers in GoDaddy to match those values.
