The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the site (A record), the mail server that deals with the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so forth are extracted from the DNS servers of the hosting provider and for any domain address to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open a website, for example, and you type in the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the website is retrieved, allowing you to see the content from the right location. Usually a domain name has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is simply visual.
NS Records in Cloud Hosting
If you use a cloud hosting plan from our us and you include a new domain in the account or transfer an existing one from a different company, you will be able to handle its NS records effortlessly using the Hepsia web hosting CP, which comes with all shared accounts. You can change the current name servers or enter additional ones for a single domain name or even for many domains at once with several mouse clicks. This is done through the feature-rich Domain Manager tool that is a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface is going to make it simple to manage your domain name even if it's the first you have ever registered. It takes simply a mouse click to see what name servers a domain name uses at the moment or if they are the correct ones to direct a domain to the hosting space on our end and with only a few clicks more you will even be able to register private name servers for any one of the domains that you own. For the latter option you can use the IP addresses of every company that you want the new NS records to point to.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server accounts are administered using Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with extremely user-friendly interface, which will allow you to control your domain names easily even when you have not used a hosting account or a domain address in the past. Changing the NS records for each and every domain name registered using our company, viewing the existing ones and whether they are correct or not as to direct that domain name to our cloud hosting platform is also quite easy and takes just a couple of clicks. You'll also be able to register child name servers under each and every one of your domain addresses as part of the free DNS control services we provide with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for any domain address which you accommodate in the semi-dedicated account, so if you offer services to third-parties and host their web sites, using this feature is going to give you much more credibility as a business.
