The Name Servers of a domain name point out the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP of the site (A record), the mail server that handles the e-mails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are taken from the DNS servers of the hosting provider and for any domain name to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open a site, for example, 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 redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the web site is obtained, so that you can view the content from the proper location. Normally a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Hosting

Managing the NS records for any domain address registered inside a hosting account on our state of the art cloud platform is going to take you merely moments. Using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool inside the Hepsia CP, you're going to be able to change the name servers not only of one domain name, but even of multiple domains at a time when you need to point them all to the same website hosting provider. The exact same steps will also permit you to direct newly transferred domains to our platform since the transfer process isn't going to change the name servers automatically and the domains will still forward to the old host. If you wish to set up private name servers for a domain address registered on our end, you're going to be able to do that with just a few clicks and with no additional charge, so if you have a company web site, as an example, it'll have more credibility if it uses name servers of its own. The new private name servers can be used for forwarding any other domain name to the same account also, besides the one they're created for.
