The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The IP of the web site (A record), the mail server that deals with the e-mails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so forth are extracted from the DNS servers of the web hosting provider and for any domain name to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a site, for instance, and you type the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then forwarded to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the web site is retrieved, allowing you to see the content from the right location. Normally a domain address has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Website Hosting

The innovative Hepsia CP, which comes with our website hosting packages, allows you to take care of the name servers of any domain address registered through us with simply a couple of mouse clicks, so even if you have never had a website hosting plan or a domain address before, you won't encounter any problems. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, features a very user-friendly interface and it will allow you to change the NS records of any domain address or even a number of domains all at once. Additionally we provide you with the opportunity to create child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for any domain name registered inside the account just as easily and all you need for that is a couple of IPs - either ours, if you will use the child NS to direct the domain to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party company if you'll use the new records to point the domain name to their system. Different from other providers, we don't charge extra for providing this additional DNS management service.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you register a new domain name inside a semi-dedicated server account or transfer an existing one from another registrar provider, you'll be able to update its NS records as needed without any issues even if you haven't had a domain address of your own before. The process takes a few clicks in Hepsia - the user-friendly management tool, which comes with our semi-dedicated solutions. If you have multiple domains in the account, you're going to be able to update all of them at the same time, which could save you quite a lot of time and clicks. Additionally you can see with ease the name servers which a domain address uses and if they're the correct ones or not for the domain address to be pointed to the account that you have got on our advanced cloud hosting platform. Hepsia will permit you to set up private name servers under any domain address registered in the account and use them not only for that domain address, but also for every other one that you would like to direct to our cloud platform.
