The Name Servers of a domain name point out the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The IP of the web site (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are obtained from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a website, for instance, and you type 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 site is retrieved, allowing you to look at the content from the correct location. Ordinarily a domain has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Web Hosting

Controlling the NS records for any domain address registered in a web hosting account on our top-notch cloud platform is going to take you just moments. Using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool within the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to change the name servers not just of a single domain address, but even of many domain addresses at a time if you want to point them all to the same hosting provider. Exactly the same steps will also permit you to point newly transferred domain names to our platform because the transfer process isn't going to change the name servers automatically and the domain names will still point to the old host. If you'd like to create private name servers for an Internet domain registered on our end, you'll be able to do that with only a couple of mouse clicks and with no additional charge, so if you have a company site, for instance, it's going to have more credibility if it uses name servers of its own. The newly created private name servers can be used for pointing any other domain name to the same account too, not just the one they are created for.

You'll also be able to see with a glance what name servers each and every one of your domains uses presently and if they're the ones needed to forward that domain name to the semi-dedicated account. As an added feature, we present you with opportunity to create child name servers dns1/2.your-domain.com totally free. This will give more credibility to your website, especially if it is a business one, and you could use these name servers for any other domain that you'd like to host inside the semi-dedicated account as well.
