The Name Servers of a domain show 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), pointing (CNAME record) etc are obtained from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider and for any domain to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open a website, for instance, and you type 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 web site is retrieved, enabling you to view the content from the proper location. Ordinarily a domain name has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is simply visual.

NS Records in Website Hosting

If you register a domain name within a website hosting account from our company, you're going to be able to take care of its name servers effortlessly. This is accomplished using the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia website hosting CP and with a few mouse clicks you'll be able to update the NS records of a single one or even multiple domain names simultaneously, which will save you considerable time and efforts when you have a lot of domain names that you'd like to forward to a different provider. You can enter several name servers depending on how many the other provider gives you. Additionally we permit you to set up private name servers for every domain registered through our company and unlike many other companies we don't charge anything more for this service. The new NS records can be used to point any other domain name to the hosting platform of the provider whose IP addresses you have used during the process, so every time you use our IPs for instance, all domain addresses included in the account on our end can use these name servers.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server accounts are managed using Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with extremely user-friendly interface, which will help you manage your domain addresses with ease even when you have never used a hosting account or a domain name in the past.

You will also be able to register child name servers under any of your domain addresses as an element of the free DNS management services which we offer with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for each and every domain that you accommodate in the semi-dedicated account, so if you provide services to third-parties and host their web sites, employing this feature is going to give you a lot more credibility as a business.
