after quickinstall on hostgator not able to build website

  • I have purchased my domain on godaddy, linked everything between hostgator and godaddy and installed wordpress with quickinstall in my cpanel for hostgator.

    When I type in my domain (examplewebsite.com/wp-admin) to edit wordpress or even clicking it from my quickinstall back office it goes straight to the godaddy page saying
    “This Web page is parked FREE, courtesy of GoDaddy.com.”

    It doesn’t give me the option to log in to my wordpress admin to edit my website like it does for my other sites.

    Help, please?

    Double check your domain’s nameservers through GoDaddy and make sure they’re pointed to your HostGator account’s nameservers (you’ll get these from HostGator).

    If they already are (and there are no other nameserver still in there, like GoDaddy’s), then you likely just have to wait for the domain change to propagate to your ISP.

    When a domain is registered or altered, there is a process called propagation, where information about the domain name is passed to internet service providers all over the world. This process can take up to 72 hours (though usually much less). During that time, your domain may go to its old location, and you may also receive a warning message in your browser about “redirect errors.”

    If you still have trouble viewing the site after 72 hours have passed, please try clearing your browser’s cache.

    If that doesn’t work, try clearing your local DNS cache: https://support.opendns.com/entries/26336865-Clearing-the-DNS-Cache-on-Computers-Servers-and-Web-Browsers
