GoDaddy Instructions

If the domain name you wish to use is currently with GoDaddy, then you have two options:
 

If you prefer to continue to manage the domain name using GoDaddy and still use our services, then go to GoDaddy and update its nameservers, or...
If you prefer to manage it all in SiteControl alongside the other services you're already using, then transfer the domain name registration from GoDaddy to us.
