The Name Servers of a domain name point out the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP address of the website (A record), the mail server that takes care of the e-mails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) and so on are obtained from the DNS servers of the web hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open a site, for instance, and you type in 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 webhosting provider where the A record of the web site is obtained, allowing you to look at the content from the right location. Commonly a domain name 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 Shared Hosting
If you use a Linux shared package from our company and you add a new domain name in the account or transfer an existing one from another provider, you are going to be able to control its NS records with ease through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, provided with all shared accounts. You are able to change the current name servers or enter additional ones for a single domain name or even for many domains at a time with several clicks. This is done through the feature-rich Domain Manager tool that's a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface is going to make it easy to control your domain address even if it's the first you have ever registered. It takes simply a mouse click to see what name servers a domain uses at the moment or if they're the correct ones to forward a domain to the hosting space on our end and with a few 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 would like the new NS records to point to.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting
The name servers for each and every domain which is registered through us can be changed with no more than a few mouse clicks using the sophisticated, albeit easy-to-use Hepsia CP included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as simple to see the current NS records for a specific domain name and to check if they're the ones that are necessary for the domain to be pointed to your hosting account. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to enable you to handle any domain address easily even if you have not dealt with such matters before. If you would like, you may even register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not just for the domain under which they're set up, but also for any other domain name that you might want to host inside the exact same account. This feature is very useful when you have clients of your own and you wish their sites to use your own name servers rather than our default ones. The service is available 100 % free.
