Vercel + Namecheap stack1 min read
Pointing Namecheap nameservers at Vercel — the full walkthrough.
Two screens, one DNS change. The 5-minute step that wires Namecheap to Vercel.
Overview
The single most-asked technical question when setting up: how do I point my Namecheap domain at Vercel? Five minutes, two screens, one DNS change.
At Vercel
Project → Settings → Domains → Add your domain. Vercel shows you two nameservers: ns1.vercel-dns.com and ns2.vercel-dns.com.
At Namecheap
Domain List → Manage → Nameservers section → switch from Namecheap BasicDNS to Custom DNS. Enter the two Vercel nameservers exactly. Save (green checkmark).
Wait and verify
30 minutes to 24 hours. Use dnschecker.org with NS type to confirm propagation. Vercel auto-verifies; SSL follows within minutes.
