The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The IP address of the website (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 taken from the DNS servers of the web hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open an Internet site, for instance, and you enter the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then pointed to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the site is obtained, allowing you to view the content from the right location. Usually a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Cloud Website Hosting

The avant-garde Hepsia Control Panel, included with with our cloud website hosting plans, allows you to deal with the name servers of every domain address registered through us with just a few mouse clicks, so even though you may have never had a website hosting plan or a domain address before, you won't encounter any problems. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, has a very user-friendly interface and will enable you to edit the NS records of any domain or even a number of domains together. Additionally we provide you with the ability to set up child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for each and every domain registered in the account just as easily and all you need for that is a pair of IP addresses - either ours, if you will use the child NS to direct the domain to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party provider if you'll use the new records to direct the domain to their system. In contrast to other providers, we do not charge more for providing this additional DNS management service.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

The name servers for every single domain which is registered through us may be changed with no more than a few mouse clicks from the leading-edge, albeit easy-to-use Hepsia CP that is included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as simple to view the current NS records for a given domain and to verify if they're 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 allow you to manage any domain address effortlessly even if you have not dealt with such matters before. If you would like, you may even 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 set up, but also for any other domain that you'd like to host in the very same account. This option is very useful if you have customers of your own and you would like their web sites to use your own name servers in lieu of our default ones. The service is absolutely free.
