The Name Servers of a domain name point out the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The Internet protocol address 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), directing (CNAME record) and so on 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 should have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open an Internet site, for instance, and you input the URL, the web 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 hosting provider where the A record of the website is retrieved, so that you can look at the content from the right location. Usually a domain name has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Shared Hosting

The avant-garde Hepsia CP, offered with with our shared hosting products, will permit you to deal with the name servers of every single domain registered through our company with just a couple of mouse clicks, so even though you may haven't had a hosting plan or a domain address before, you will not encounter any troubles. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, has a very user-friendly interface and it will allow you to change the NS records of any domain address or even a number of domains simultaneously. We also offer you the ability to create child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for any domain name registered in the account just as easily and all you need for that is a couple of IPs - either ours, if you will use the child NS to point the domain address to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party provider if you'll use the new records to direct the domain address to their system. Different from other companies, we don't charge more for providing this additional DNS management service.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server accounts are handled via Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with highly user-friendly interface, that will permit you to control your domain names without difficulty even when you have not used a hosting account or a domain before. Changing the NS records for any domain name registered with our company, viewing the current ones and whether they are right or not as to point that domain name to our cloud hosting platform is also fairly simple and requires just several clicks. You are also going to be able to register child name servers under every one of your domains as an element of the free DNS control services we provide with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for any domain address you accommodate in the semi-dedicated account, so if you provide services to third-parties and host their web sites, employing this feature will give you far more credibility as a business.
