The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP of the site (A record), the mail server that handles the emails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) and so forth are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a site, for instance, and you insert the URL, the web 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 webhosting provider where the A record of the website is obtained, allowing you to look at the content from the correct location. Usually a domain address has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Web Hosting

The innovative Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with our web hosting packages, allows you to manage the name servers of each and every domain name registered through our company with simply a couple of mouse clicks, so even when you have not had a web hosting plan or a domain name before, you will not encounter any difficulties. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, has a very user-friendly interface and it will enable you to edit the NS records of any domain name or even a number of domains simultaneously. We also offer you the chance to create child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for each and every domain registered within the account just as easily and all you need for that is a pair of IP addresses - either ours, if you're going to use the child NS to forward the domain to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party provider if you'll use the new records to redirect the domain to their system. In contrast to other companies, we don't charge additional for providing this additional DNS management service.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

The name servers for each and every domain address that's registered through our company may be changed with no more than a few mouse clicks through the innovative, albeit easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as easy to view the current NS records for a specific domain address and to verify if they are the ones that are necessary for the domain name to be directed to your hosting account. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to allow you to handle any domain name easily even if you have not 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 name under which they're created, but also for any other domain address that you'd like to host inside the same account. This feature is very beneficial if you have clients of your own and you want their websites to use your own name servers in lieu of our default ones. The service is free of charge.
