When someone visits your website or sends you an email, their ISP (Internet Service Provider e.g. Telkom, Vodacom) checks your domain name to find where it is hosted. Each domain name has at least two internet addresses that tell the ISP where your domain is hosted. These are called name servers.
The job of these name servers is to direct an ISP to the specific server that hosts your website/email. To change your hosting provider, you need to change your domain name’s name server records.
For Old Amplehosting clients the name servers are as follows:
ns1.ampledns.com
ns2.ampledns.com
