The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the website (A record), the mail server that handles the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are extracted from the DNS servers of the hosting provider 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 instance, and you type the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then forwarded to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the web site is retrieved, enabling you to look at the content from the proper location. Usually a domain 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 Cloud Hosting

Taking care of the NS records for any domain name registered in a cloud hosting account on our state of the art cloud platform is going to take you just moments. Using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool in the Hepsia CP, you're going to be able to change the name servers not only of a single domain address, but even of many domains simultaneously if you would like to direct them all to the same webhosting provider. The exact same steps will also permit you to direct newly transferred domain addresses to our platform as the transfer process is not going to change the name servers automatically and the domains will still redirect to the old host. If you wish to create private name servers for a domain name registered on our end, you are going to be able to do that with just a few clicks and with no additional charge, so in case you have a company web site, for example, it will have more credibility if it employs name servers of its own. The new private name servers can be used for redirecting any other domain name to the same account also, not only the one they are created for.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

The name servers for every domain that's registered through us can be changed with no more than a few clicks from the sophisticated, though easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel that is included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as easy to view the current NS records for a specific domain address and to determine 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 permit you to handle any domain address easily 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 just for the domain address under which they're created, but also for any other domain that you'd like to host in the very same account. This feature is very useful if you have customers of your own and you would like their websites to use your own name servers in lieu of our default ones. The service is 100 % free.
