The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP address of the website (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), directing (CNAME record) etc are obtained from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be pointed 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 input the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then pointed to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the website is retrieved, allowing you to view the content from the right location. Ordinarily a domain address has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Cloud Web Hosting

Managing the NS records for any domain name registered within a cloud web hosting account on our top-notch cloud platform will take you just moments. Via the feature-rich Domain Manager tool in the Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to change the name servers not only of one domain, but even of multiple domain addresses at a time whenever you would like to point them all to the same hosting company. Exactly the same steps will also enable you to direct newly transferred domains to our platform because the transfer process doesn't change the name servers automatically and the domain addresses will still direct to the old host. If you would like to set up private name servers for an Internet domain registered on our end, you're going to be able to do that with just a few clicks and with no additional charge, so if you have a company website, for example, it'll have more credibility if it employs name servers of its own. The new private name servers can be used for forwarding any other domain to the same account too, not only the one they are created for.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you go for a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you're going to be able to control the NS records of any domain registered within it without difficulty. The Hepsia CP, which is in essence an all-in-one tool for you to manage everything relevant to your web presence, comes with a very simple and user-friendly interface. The section where you will find all your domain addresses isn't an exception, so even if you have never had a domain address and a website hosting account before, updating the name servers or entering additional ones is not going to take you more than a few clicks. You'll also be able to see with a glance what name servers every one of your domains uses right now and if they are the ones needed to direct that domain name to the semi-dedicated account. As an additional feature, we offer you the opportunity to set up child name servers dns1/2.your-domain.com totally free. This will give more credibility to your site, particularly if it is a business one, and you may use these name servers for any other domain that you'd like to host within the semi-dedicated account as well.
