The Name Servers of a domain reveal the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP of the web site (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) etc are taken from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open a site, for example, and you enter 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 site is retrieved, allowing you to look at the content from the right location. Commonly a domain 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 Cloud Website Hosting
If you use a cloud website hosting from our company and you register a new domain address inside the account or transfer an existing one from a different company, you are going to be able to handle its NS records easily through the Hepsia hosting CP, offered with all shared accounts. You'll be able to change the current name servers or enter additional ones for a single domain name or even for a number of domains at the same time with several clicks. This is done through the feature-rich Domain Manager tool which is a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface will make it easy to manage your domain address even if it is the first one you've ever registered. It takes just a mouse click to see what name servers a domain name uses at the moment or if they are the correct ones to forward 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 any of the domain names that you own. For the latter option you can use the IPs of each provider that you'd like the new NS records to direct to.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you register a new domain inside a semi-dedicated server account or transfer an existing one from another registrar provider, you're going to be able to update its NS records as required without any troubles even if you haven't had a domain address of your own before. The process takes a couple of clicks in Hepsia - the user-friendly control tool, provided with our semi-dedicated plans. If you have many domain addresses within the account, you are going to be able to update all of them at the same time, which can save you a lot of time and clicks. Additionally you can see with ease the name servers that a domain name uses and if they're the correct ones or not in order for the domain name to be pointed to the account which you have on our sophisticated cloud web hosting platform. Hepsia will also enable you to set up private name servers under any domain name registered in the account and use them not just for that domain, but also for any other one that you want to direct to our cloud platform.
