The Name Servers of a domain show the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP of the website (A record), the mail server that manages the emails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) and so on are obtained from the DNS servers of the hosting provider and for any Internet domain 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 an Internet site, for example, 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 sent to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the site is obtained, allowing you to see the content from the proper location. Usually a domain address has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Cloud Website Hosting

In the event you register a domain name within a cloud website hosting account from our company, you are going to be able to control its name servers with ease. This is accomplished via the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia hosting CP and with only a few mouse clicks you're going to be able to update the NS records of a single one or even a number of domain names at a time, which could save you a lot of time and efforts if you have a huge number of domain names that you would like to forward to a different service provider. You can enter numerous name servers depending on how many the other provider offers you. We permit you to set up private name servers for each domain name registered using our company and unlike many other companies we don't charge anything more for this service. The new NS records can be used to redirect any other domain to the hosting platform of the company whose IP addresses you have used during the process, so if you use our IPs in particular, all domains added to the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server accounts are managed via Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with extremely user-friendly interface, which will enable you to control your domain addresses easily even if you haven't used a hosting account or a domain name before. Changing the NS records for each domain registered with our company, viewing the current ones and whether they are correct or not as to forward that domain address to our cloud hosting platform is also fairly simple and requires just a few clicks. You're also going to be able to register child name servers under any of your domain addresses as an element of the free DNS administration services we provide 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 which 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 a lot more credibility as a business.
