The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The IP of the web site (A record), the mail server that handles the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) and so on are taken from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open a site, for example, and you input the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then pointed to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the site is retrieved, so you can look at the content from the proper location. Normally a domain name 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

Taking care of the NS records for any domain address registered in a web hosting account on our top-notch cloud platform will take you only moments. Via the feature-rich Domain Manager tool inside the Hepsia CP, you're going to be able to change the name servers not just of a single domain, but even of many domain addresses simultaneously whenever you want to forward them all to the same hosting provider. The very same steps will also allow you to forward newly transferred domain addresses to our platform given that the transfer procedure won't change the name servers automatically and the domains will still point to the old host. If you want 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 couple of mouse clicks and with no additional charge, so when you have a company website, for instance, it will have more credibility if it uses name servers of its own. The new private name servers can be used for redirecting any other domain address to the same account also, besides the one they're created for.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you register a new domain name inside a semi-dedicated server account or transfer an existing one from another registrar provider, you'll be able to update its NS records as needed without any difficulties even if you haven't had a domain name of your own before. The process takes a few mouse clicks in Hepsia - the user-friendly control tool, which comes with our semi-dedicated plans. If you have many different domains within the account, you're going to be able to update all of them simultaneously, which will save you a lot of time and mouse clicks. Also you can see with ease the name servers that a domain name uses and if they're the correct ones or not in order for the domain to be directed to the account that you have got on our advanced cloud hosting platform. Hepsia will permit you to set up private name servers under any domain name registered inside the account and use them not just for that domain address, but also for every other one that you wish to point to our cloud platform.
