The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the website (A record), the mail server that takes care of the e-mails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) etc are obtained from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a website, for instance, and you type the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the site is retrieved, so you can see the content from the proper location. Normally a domain address has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is only visual.
NS Records in Shared Web Hosting
When you use a Linux shared web hosting from our company and you register a new domain address inside the account or transfer an existing one from another company, you'll be able to handle its NS records with ease using the Hepsia web hosting CP, which comes 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 a number of domain names at the same time with several clicks. This is done via the feature-rich Domain Manager tool that is a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface is going to make it easy to control your domain even if it's the first one you've ever registered. It requires only a click to see what name servers a domain address uses at the moment or if they're the correct ones to point a domain address to the hosting space on our end and with only a couple of clicks more you are going to even be able to register private name servers for any one of the domain names that you own. For the latter option you can use the IPs of each company that you'd like the new NS records to direct to.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you register a new domain within a semi-dedicated server account or transfer an existing one from another registrar company, you'll be able to update its NS records as required without any issues even if you haven't had a domain address of your own before. The process takes a few clicks in Hepsia - the user-friendly control tool, which comes with our semi-dedicated packages. If you have many domain addresses within the account, you are going to be able to update all of them simultaneously, which can save you a great deal of time and clicks. Additionally you can see with ease the name servers which a domain name uses and if they are the right ones or not as a way for the domain to be directed to the account which you have on our advanced cloud web hosting platform. Hepsia will enable you to create private name servers under any domain name registered within the account and use them not only for that domain name, but also for any other one that you would like to direct to our cloud platform.
