The Name Servers of a domain show the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the website (A record), the mail server that handles the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open a website, for instance, and you type in the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then pointed to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the web site is retrieved, so you can see the content from the correct location. Ordinarily a domain address has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Cloud Hosting

When you use a cloud hosting from our company and you include a new domain within the account or transfer an existing one from a different provider, you're going to be able to manage its NS records with ease via the Hepsia website hosting CP, offered with all shared accounts. You'll be able to change the current name servers or enter additional ones for a single domain or even for a group of domains at a time with several clicks. This is done via the feature-rich Domain Manager tool which is a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface will make it easy to control your domain address even if it's the first one you've ever registered. It takes merely a mouse click to see what name servers a domain uses at the moment or if they're the correct ones to forward a domain address to the hosting space on our end and with only a few mouse clicks more you will even be able to register private name servers for each of the domain names that you own. For the latter option you can use the IP addresses of any company that you want the new NS records to forward to.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

The name servers for every single domain which is registered through us may be changed with no more than a few clicks from the leading-edge, although easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as simple to see the current NS records for a particular domain address and to check if they are the ones that are necessary 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 handle any domain address with ease even if you have not dealt with such matters before. If you would like, 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 name that you might want to host in the exact same account. This feature is very useful when you have customers of your own and you would like their sites to use your own name servers instead of our default ones. The service is available absolutely free.
