Connect NicNames Domain to Vercel
Complete guide to connect your NicNames domain to your website on Vercel. Free, easy, only takes 5 minutes!
📋 Step 1: Create a Vercel Account
1. Go to vercel.com
2. Click "Sign Up" → Login with GitHub, GitLab, or Email
3. Free for personal use, no credit card required
🚀 Step 2: Deploy Your Website to Vercel
3 ways to deploy (pick one):
Option A: Using GitHub (Easiest)
- Upload your website files to GitHub
- On Vercel, click "New Project" → Select your GitHub repo
- Click "Deploy" — done!
Option B: Using Vercel CLI
npm i -g vercel
cd your-website-folder
vercel --prod
cd your-website-folder
vercel --prod
➕ Step 3: Add Domain in Vercel
1. Open your project in Vercel Dashboard
2. Click "Settings" tab → "Domains"
3. Type your NicNames domain, e.g: domacheck.fun
4. Click "Add"
🌐 Step 4: Change Nameservers in NicNames
1. Login to NicNames.com
2. Open your domain → Find "Nameservers" menu
3. Select "Custom Nameservers"
4. Enter:
Nameserver 1: ns1.vercel-dns.com
Nameserver 2: ns2.vercel-dns.com
Nameserver 2: ns2.vercel-dns.com
⚠️ Important: Don't use "DNS Records" (A/CNAME) — it may fail. Use Nameservers instead!
⏳ Step 5: Wait for Propagation
After changing nameservers, it takes time:
- Usually: 15-30 minutes
- Maximum: 24 hours
Check in Vercel Dashboard → Settings → Domains. Green ✅ = active!
🔧 Troubleshooting
Problem: 404 Not Found
- Wait 15-30 minutes, DNS is still propagating
- Open in Incognito/Private window
- Clear browser cache: Ctrl+Shift+Delete
- Try on phone using mobile data
Problem: Vercel Says "Not Configured"
- Make sure nameservers are correct
- Wait 30 minutes for verification
- Click "Refresh" on Vercel Domains page
