The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The IP of the website (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) and so forth are obtained from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any domain name to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open an Internet site, for example, and you enter the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then pointed to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the website is retrieved, allowing you to see the content from the correct location. Usually a domain has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Shared Hosting

In the event you register a domain name inside a shared hosting account from our company, you'll be able to handle its name servers without difficulty. This can be done using the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel and with only a few mouse clicks you'll be able to update the NS records of one or even multiple domain names at once, which could save you time and efforts in case you have a large number of domains you want to point to another service provider. You can enter several name servers depending on how many the other provider provides you with. Furthermore we allow you to create private name servers for each domain registered through our company and unlike many other companies we do not charge anything extra for this service. The newly created NS records can be used to direct any other domain to the hosting platform of the company whose IPs you have used during the process, so when you use our IPs for example, all domain addresses included in the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server accounts are managed using Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with very user-friendly interface, that will enable you to manage your domain addresses without difficulty even if you have not used a hosting account or a domain previously. Changing the NS records for each domain address registered using our company, viewing the existing ones and whether they are accurate or not as to forward that domain address to our cloud hosting platform is also quite easy and takes only a couple of mouse clicks. You are also going to be able to register child name servers under each and every one of your domain addresses as an element of the free DNS control services which we provide with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for every domain address that you accommodate within the semi-dedicated account, so if you offer services to third-parties and host their web sites, using this feature will give you more credibility as a business.
