The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP of the web site (A record), the mail server that handles the emails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are taken from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider 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 wish to open a website, for example, and you input the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the web site is retrieved, allowing you to view the content from the right location. Commonly a domain address has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Hosting

When you use a hosting from our company and you add a new domain in the account or transfer an existing one from a different provider, you are going to be able to manage its NS records easily through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, provided with all shared accounts. You'll be able to change the current name servers or enter additional ones for a single domain or even for several domain addresses at the same time with several mouse clicks. This is done using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool which is a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface is going to make it easy to control your domain address even if it is the first you've ever registered. It requires merely a mouse click to see what name servers a domain name uses at the moment or if they are the correct ones to direct a domain address to the hosting space on our end and with a few mouse clicks more you'll even be able to register private name servers for each of the domain names that you own. For the latter option you can use the IP addresses of each company that you want the new NS records to direct to.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

The name servers for any domain address that's registered through our company could be changed with no more than a few mouse clicks through the leading-edge, although easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel that is included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as effortless to see the current NS records for a given domain name and to check if they are the ones that are necessary for the domain name to be forwarded to your hosting account. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to permit you to manage any domain address with ease even if you have never dealt with such matters before. If you'd like, you can even register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not only for the domain address under which they're created, but also for any other domain name that you might want to host within the exact same account. This feature is very handy if you have clients of your own and you want their sites to use your own name servers rather than our default ones. The service is available free of charge.
