The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The Internet protocol 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) and so on are obtained from the DNS servers of the web hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you want 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 and the request is then forwarded to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the web site is obtained, enabling you to look at the content from the right location. Usually a domain name has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Website Hosting

In the event you register a domain name within a website hosting account from our company, you will be able to take care of its name servers easily. This can be done via the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and with just a few mouse clicks you are going to be able to update the NS records of one or even a number of domains at once, which could save you considerable time and efforts when you have a large number of domain addresses you want to direct to an alternative provider. You can enter many name servers depending on how many the other provider provides you with. Furthermore we allow you to create private name servers for any domain name registered via our company and unlike many other companies we don't charge anything additional for this service. The new NS records can be used to forward any other domain name to the hosting platform of the company whose IPs you have used during the process, so if you use our IPs for instance, all domains included in the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The name servers for any domain which is registered through us could be changed with no more than a few clicks through the innovative, although easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as effortless to see the current NS records for a specific domain address and to verify if they are the ones that are necessary for the domain to be forwarded to your hosting account. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to allow you to control any domain address effortlessly even if you haven't dealt with such matters before. If you would like, you may also register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not only for the domain name under which they're set up, but also for any other domain that you would like to host within the exact same account. This option is very beneficial if you have clients of your own and you wish their websites to use your own name servers rather than our default ones. The service is available 100 % free.
