The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP of the site (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are extracted from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any domain name to be using them and to be forwarded 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 input the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the site is obtained, enabling you to view the content from the correct location. Commonly a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Web Hosting

In the event you register a domain name within a web hosting account from our company, you'll be able to handle its name servers with ease. This is done via the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel and with only a few clicks you're going to be able to update the NS records of one or even a number of domain names at the same time, which can save you a lot of time and efforts if you have a lot of domain names that you'd like to point to an alternative service provider. You can enter several name servers depending on how many the other provider provides you with. Additionally we permit you to set up private name servers for any domain registered through our company and unlike many other providers we do not charge anything more for this service. The new NS records can be used to direct any other domain name to the hosting platform of the company whose IPs you have used during the process, so every time you use our IPs for example, all domain names added to the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you register a new domain name inside a semi-dedicated server account or transfer an existing one from another registrar company, you're going to be able to update its NS records as needed without any problems even if you have never had a domain of your own before. The process takes a couple of mouse clicks in Hepsia - the user-friendly management tool, included with our semi-dedicated solutions. If you have many different domains in the account, you will be able to update all of them at once, which can save you a lot of time and mouse clicks. Additionally you can see with ease the name servers which a domain address uses and if they're the correct ones or not for the domain to be directed to the account that you have got on our advanced cloud hosting platform. Hepsia will also allow you to set up private name servers under any domain address registered in the account and use them not just for that domain, but also for every other one that you want to direct to our cloud platform.
