The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP of the site (A record), the mail server that deals with the emails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open an Internet site, for instance, and you insert the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the website is obtained, so that you can see the content from the proper location. Usually a domain has a couple of 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 case you register a domain name in a website hosting account from our company, you will be able to manage its name servers effortlessly. This is accomplished using the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia hosting CP and with a few clicks you'll be able to update the NS records of one or even several domain addresses at a time, which can save you a lot of time and efforts if you have a lot of domains that you'd like to redirect to an alternative service provider. You can enter multiple name servers depending on how many the other provider provides you with. Furthermore we allow you to create private name servers for every single Internet domain registered using our company and unlike many other providers we do not charge anything additional for this service. The newly created NS records can be used to redirect any other domain to the hosting platform of the provider whose IPs you have used during the process, so each time you use our IPs for example, all domains added to the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server accounts are managed via Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with incredibly user-friendly interface, which will help you control your domain names easily even when you have not used a hosting account or a domain name before. Changing the NS records for each domain address registered using our company, viewing the current ones and whether they are accurate or not as to forward that domain name to our cloud hosting platform is also fairly simple and takes as little as several mouse clicks. You're also going to be able to register child name servers under each and every one of your domain names as an element of the free DNS management services that we offer you with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for any domain that you accommodate within the semi-dedicated account, so if you provide services to third-parties and host their websites, employing this feature is going to give you much more credibility as a business.
