The Name Servers of a domain reveal the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the website (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) etc are obtained from the DNS servers of the web hosting provider and for any domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open an Internet site, for instance, and you input the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the web site is obtained, so that you can view the content from the correct location. Commonly a domain name has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is just visual.
NS Records in Shared Web Hosting
The avant-garde Hepsia CP, offered with with our shared web hosting plans, will allow you to deal with the name servers of every domain registered through our company with only a couple of mouse clicks, so even though you may have not had a hosting plan or a domain name before, you will not encounter any troubles. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, features a very user-friendly interface and will allow you to modify the NS records of any domain address or even a number of domain names together. We also offer you the chance to create child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for any domain name registered within the account just as easily and all you need for that is a couple of IP addresses - either ours, if you will use the child NS to point the domain address to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party company if you'll use the new records to direct the domain to their system. In contrast to other providers, we don't charge more for providing this additional DNS management service.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
The name servers for any domain which is registered through our company can be changed with no more than a few mouse clicks through the sophisticated, although easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as effortless to view the current NS records for a given domain and to verify if they're the ones that are needed 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 permit you to manage any domain address easily even if you have never 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 only for the domain address under which they're created, but also for any other domain name that you'd like to host inside the exact same account. This option is very beneficial when you have clients of your own and you wish their websites to use your own name servers rather than our default ones. The service is available absolutely free.
