The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The IP of the site (A record), the mail server that manages the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) etc are extracted from the DNS servers of the web hosting provider and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open an Internet site, for example, and you enter 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 webhosting provider where the A record of the web site is obtained, allowing you to look at the content from the correct location. Normally a domain has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Shared Hosting

In case you register a domain name inside a shared hosting account from our company, you're going to be able to take care of its name servers effortlessly. This is accomplished through the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel and with only a few clicks you will be able to update the NS records of one or even numerous domain addresses at a time, which could save you time and efforts when you have a large number of domain addresses you want to redirect to another provider. You can enter many name servers depending on how many the other provider provides you with. We allow you to set up private name servers for any Internet domain registered with our company and unlike many other companies we do not charge anything additional 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 when you use our IPs in particular, all domain names added to the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you register a new domain within 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 troubles even if you have never 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 multiple domains inside the account, you're going to be able to update all of them at once, which can save you a great deal of time and mouse clicks. Also you can see with ease the name servers that a domain uses and if they're the correct ones or not as a way for the domain to be pointed to the account that you have got on our advanced cloud web hosting platform. Hepsia will even allow you to set up private name servers under any domain registered in the account and use them not just for that domain, but also for any other one that you want to point to our cloud platform.
