The Name Servers of a domain name point out the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the web site (A record), the mail server that deals with the emails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) etc are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any domain to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open a site, for instance, and you type the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the website is retrieved, so you can look at the content from the right location. Usually a domain address has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Web Hosting

In the event you register a domain name inside a web hosting account from our company, you'll be able to take care of its name servers easily. This can be done through the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia website hosting CP and with just a couple of mouse clicks you will be able to update the NS records of a single one or even multiple domain names at a time, which can save you considerable time and efforts in case you have a huge number of domain addresses that you would like to redirect to a different provider. You can enter numerous name servers depending on how many the other provider gives you. Furthermore we allow you to create private name servers for each and every domain registered using our company and in contrast to many other providers we do not charge anything additional for this service. The newly created NS records can be used to forward any other domain to the hosting platform of the provider whose IPs you have used during the process, so every time you use our IPs for instance, all domains included in the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

The name servers for every domain address that's registered through us can be changed with no more than a few mouse clicks from the advanced, though easy-to-use Hepsia CP that is included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as effortless to view the current NS records for a specific domain name and to verify if they're the ones that are required for the domain name to be forwarded to your hosting account. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to permit you to control any domain name effortlessly even if you have never dealt with such matters before. If you want, you may even register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not just for the domain name under which they're set up, but also for any other domain that you'd like to host within the exact same account. This option is very beneficial if you have clients of your own and you want their websites to use your own name servers instead of our default ones. The service is available absolutely free.
