The Name Servers of a domain reveal the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP address of the website (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails 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 hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open a website, for example, and you type the URL, the web 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 hosting company where the A record of the site is retrieved, so you can look at the content from the right location. Ordinarily 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 Shared Hosting

Taking care of the NS records for any domain address registered in a shared hosting account on our cutting-edge cloud platform will take you only seconds. Through the feature-rich Domain Manager tool in the Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to change the name servers not just of a single domain name, but even of several domain addresses simultaneously whenever you would like to forward them all to the same hosting company. The exact same steps will also allow you to forward newly transferred domains to our platform since the transfer process won't change the name servers automatically and the domains will still forward to the old host. If you need to set up private name servers for a domain address registered on our end, you're going to be able to do that with only a few clicks and with no additional charge, so if you have a company web site, for example, it's going to have more credibility if it uses name servers of its own. The newly created private name servers can be used for redirecting any other domain to the same account too, not just the one they're created for.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server accounts are managed using Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with incredibly user-friendly interface, that will permit you to handle your domains effortlessly even when you have never used a web hosting account or a domain name before. Changing the NS records for each domain registered using our company, viewing the existing ones and whether they are accurate or not as to direct that domain address to our cloud hosting platform is also fairly simple and requires as little as a couple of mouse clicks. You are also going to be able to register child name servers under every one of your domains as part of the free DNS control services which we offer with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for each and every domain name you accommodate inside the semi-dedicated account, so if you offer services to third-parties and host their web sites, using this feature is going to give you more credibility as a business.
