The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that handle 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), pointing (CNAME record) and so forth are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any domain to be using them and to be forwarded 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 in the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the web site is retrieved, so that you can view the content from the proper location. Commonly a domain address has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is only visual.
NS Records in Shared Website Hosting
Controlling the NS records for any domain name registered in a shared website hosting account on our state of the art cloud platform is going to take you merely moments. Through the feature-rich Domain Manager tool within the Hepsia CP, you're going to be able to change the name servers not just of a single domain name, but even of multiple domain names simultaneously if you need to forward them all to the same website hosting provider. The exact same steps will also enable you to forward newly transferred domain addresses to our platform since the transfer process isn't going to change the name servers automatically and the domain addresses will still redirect to the old host. If you need to set up private name servers for an Internet domain registered on our end, you'll be able to do that with only a few mouse clicks and with no additional charge, so when you have a company website, for instance, it will have more credibility if it employs name servers of its own. The newly created private name servers can be used for redirecting any other domain to the same account as well, besides the one they are created for.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting
The name servers for every single domain address that is registered through our company may be changed with no more than a few mouse clicks via the innovative, although easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It's just as effortless to see the current NS records for a specific domain address and to determine if they're the ones that are necessary for the domain name to be forwarded to your hosting account. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to enable you to manage any domain address with ease even if you haven't dealt with such matters before. If you'd like, you can even register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not only for the domain under which they're set up, but also for any other domain that you might want to host within the same account. This option is very useful when you have customers of your own and you wish their web sites to use your own name servers instead of our default ones. The service is available absolutely free.
