The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP of the web site (A record), the mail server that takes care of the emails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) and so on are taken from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider and for any domain to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open an Internet site, for example, and you insert 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 company where the A record of the website is retrieved, enabling you to look at the content from the proper location. Ordinarily a domain has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is simply visual.
NS Records in Website Hosting
When you use a website hosting plan from our us and you register a new domain name within the account or transfer an existing one from another provider, you're going to be able to manage its NS records effortlessly through the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, offered with all shared accounts. You'll be able to change the current name servers or enter additional ones for a single domain address or even for a group of domain names at a time with several mouse clicks. This is done using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool that is a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface is going to make it easy to handle your domain even if it is the first one you have ever registered. It takes merely a click to see what name servers a domain name uses at the moment or if they're the correct ones to direct a domain to the hosting space on our end and with only a few mouse 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 each and every provider that you want the new NS records to forward to.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server accounts are handled via Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with highly user-friendly interface, that will enable you to control your domains with ease even if you haven't used a hosting account or a domain previously. Changing the NS records for any domain name registered through our company, viewing the current ones and whether they are correct or not as to direct that domain name to our cloud hosting platform is also very simple and takes only a couple of mouse clicks. You're also going to be able to register child name servers under every one of your domain names as part of the free DNS administration services which we offer with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for each and every domain address you accommodate within the semi-dedicated account, so if you provide services to third-parties and host their sites, using this feature will give you much more credibility as a business.
