The Name Servers of a domain show the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The IP address of the website (A record), the mail server that takes care of the emails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) and so on are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider and for any domain name to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open an Internet site, for example, and you type 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 company where the A record of the site is obtained, enabling you to see the content from the proper location. Commonly a domain has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Cloud Hosting

In case you register a domain name inside a cloud hosting account from our company, you will be able to take care of its name servers without difficulty. This can be done through the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia hosting CP and with a few clicks you're going to be able to update the NS records of one or even multiple domain names simultaneously, which can save you time and efforts if you have a lot of domain names that you'd like to forward to an alternative service provider. You can enter many name servers depending on how many the other company gives you. Additionally we allow you to set up private name servers for each and every domain name registered with our company and in contrast to many other companies we don't charge anything extra for this service. The newly created NS records can be used to forward any other domain name to the hosting platform of the provider whose IPs you have used during the process, so each time you use our IPs for instance, all domain names added to the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The name servers for each domain that's registered through our company can be changed with no more than a few clicks via the sophisticated, although easy-to-use Hepsia CP included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It's just as simple to view the current NS records for a particular domain address and to verify if they're the ones that are required for the domain address to be forwarded to your hosting account. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to permit you to control any domain address easily even if you have never dealt with such matters before. If you wish, you can also register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not only for the domain under which they are set up, but also for any other domain name that you would like to host inside the very same account. This feature is very useful when you have clients of your own and you want their sites to use your own name servers rather than our default ones. The service is available totally free.
