Nameservers
(for delegating domain names)

If you delegate your domain names to us rather than transferring them, you will need to use the following nameserver settings: ns1.hiltonian.net and ns2.hiltonian.net.

Nominet IPS Tag
(for transferring UK domain names)

To transfer a UK domain name to Hiltonian Media, you should ask your current ISP, host or registrar to change the IPS Tag to “HILTONIAN”.
