In order to create your own website, it is not enough just to register a domain name. The domain itself is just the name of the site, and the site has not yet been hosted anywhere. Hosting is required to host a website on the network. This service is provided by hosting sites. But in order to take advantage of this opportunity, you need to attach (delegate) a domain to your chosen hosting site.

Instructions
Step 1
Choose a hosting site that suits your tariffs and services. If you want to use free hosting, please note that in this case, according to the user agreement, the site must contain advertising installed by the hoster. So, the hosting site compensates for the costs of maintaining and supporting your site.
Step 2
Register with the selected hoster, pay (if it is a paid hosting) and see what changes need to be made in the DNS records of your domain.
Step 3
Log into the control panel on the registrar's website through which you registered the domain name. From the Domains menu, select Manage and go to the My Domains section. Select the required domain with a mouse click.
Step 4
In the domain management menu that opens, click on "Manage DNS servers / Delegation". In the window that appears, uncheck the box "Use registrar's DNS servers" and make the necessary changes to the DNS records. To ensure the safe operation of the site, at least 2 servers are required.
Step 5
Then click on the "Change" button. The inscription DELEGATED should appear near the domain in the general list of domain names you own, which means that the domain is delegated, i.e. attached to the servers of the required hoster.
Step 6
If you have chosen free hosting, which is issued simultaneously with a third-level domain name, then it is not enough to make changes to the DNS records on the registrar's website. It is necessary to attach the second-level domain you registered to the hosting so that the site name is not the third-level domain issued by the hoster, but the second-level domain you need.
Step 7
Find the "Transfer Domain / Custom Domain" section. Enter the domain name and click the "Park Domain" button. Wait for the end of parking and get directions for the end of parking.
Step 8
Wait for the changes to the DNS servers to take effect.
