Hi @harshku2630,
The Droplet you have with DigitalOcean has nothing to do with your DNS usually. So if you have your domain with hostinger, what I would recommend you is to change the nameservers of your domain to DigitalOcean’s. The nameservers you should use are:
Once that is done, I would recommend adding your domain in your DigitalOcean’s account. Adding a domain you own to your DigitalOcean account lets you manage the domain’s DNS records with the control panel. You can read more about how it can be done here:
https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/networking/dns/how-to/add-domains/
The above answer is not a bad idea.
We prefer to keep the DNS setting for all of our domains in one place… the registry (pairdomains.com in our case.)
Since we have websites on different servers we simply add A records to point to them and we add MX records to point to the email server… in our case just one small $5/mo. shared server with an ISP that has email (pair.com.)
We have the domains listed there with their email boxes. (It is the cheapest way to go if you have many domains each with a lot of email boxes. The 3rd party email services (i.e. FastMail are too expensive for multiple domains.)
