The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP of the web site (A record), the mail server that deals with the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so forth are obtained from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any domain name to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open an Internet site, for instance, and you input the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then forwarded to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the site is obtained, enabling you to view the content from the proper location. Usually a domain address has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is only visual.
NS Records in Website Hosting
Taking care of the NS records for any domain address registered inside a website hosting account on our cutting-edge cloud platform is going to take you merely moments. Using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool within the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to change the name servers not just of a single domain, but even of numerous domain names at a time if you want to point them all to the same webhosting provider. The very same steps will also enable you to direct newly transferred domain names to our platform given that the transfer process isn't going to change the name servers automatically and the domains will still forward to the old host. If you need to set up private name servers for a domain registered on our end, you will be able to do that with a few clicks and with no additional charge, so if you decide to have a company site, for example, it's going to have more credibility if it uses name servers of its own. The new private name servers can be used for forwarding any other domain to the same account also, besides the one they're created for.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server accounts are handled using Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with highly user-friendly interface, that will enable you to manage your domain addresses easily even when you have not used a web hosting account or a domain previously. Changing the NS records for each domain address registered using our company, viewing the current ones and whether they are right or not as to point that domain to our cloud hosting platform is also very simple and takes just several mouse clicks. You're also going to be able to register child name servers under any of your domains as a part of the free DNS control services which we provide with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for every domain address that you accommodate in the semi-dedicated account, so if you provide services to third-parties and host their sites, employing this feature will give you more credibility as a business.
