The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP address of the site (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) etc are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any domain name to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open a site, for instance, and you input 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 website is obtained, so that you can view the content from the correct location. Commonly a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Cloud Hosting

If you register a domain name inside a cloud hosting account from our company, you're going to be able to manage its name servers with ease. This is accomplished using the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and with only a few clicks you will be able to update the NS records of one or even numerous domain names at a time, which can save you a lot of time and efforts in case you have a lot of domains that you would like to direct to another service provider. You can enter a number of name servers depending on how many the other provider offers you. Additionally we permit you to set up private name servers for each and every domain address registered using our company and in contrast to many other companies we do not charge anything extra for this service. The new NS records can be used to redirect any other domain to the hosting platform of the provider whose IPs you have used during the process, so every time you use our IPs for example, all domain names included in the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you choose a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you will be able to handle the NS records of every domain name registered within it with ease. The Hepsia CP, which is in essence an all-in-one tool for you to deal with everything associated with your web presence, offers a very simple and easy-to-use interface. The section in which you will find all your domain names isn't an exception, so even if you haven't had a domain and a web hosting account before, updating the name servers or entering additional ones is not going to take you more than a few mouse clicks. You will also be able to see with a glance what name servers each of your domain addresses uses at the moment and if they are the ones required to forward that domain name to the semi-dedicated account. As an extra feature, we offer you the opportunity to create child name servers dns1/2.your-domain.com free of charge. This will give more credibility to your website, especially if it's a business one, and you may use these name servers for any other domain that you might want to host within the semi-dedicated account as well.
