The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the web site (A record), the mail server that deals with the emails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) etc are extracted from the DNS servers of the web hosting company and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a website, for instance, and you insert the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then forwarded to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the site is obtained, so that you can view the content from the proper location. Usually a domain address has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.
NS Records in Web Hosting
The outstanding Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with our web hosting products, will permit you to handle the name servers of every single domain name registered through us with just a couple of mouse clicks, so even if you have not had a web hosting plan or a domain before, you'll not encounter any issues. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, comes with a very user-friendly interface and it will enable you to modify the NS records of any domain name or even a number of domain names simultaneously. We provide you with the opportunity to set up child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for each and every domain registered inside the account just as easily and all you need for that is a couple of IP addresses - 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 company if you will use the new records to redirect the domain to their system. In contrast to other companies, we do not charge extra for providing this additional DNS management service.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our semi-dedicated server accounts are administered through Hepsia - an all-in-one tool with highly user-friendly interface, that will allow you to manage your domains without difficulty even if you have never used a hosting account or a domain address previously. Changing the NS records for any domain address registered through our company, viewing the existing ones and whether they are correct or not as to direct that domain name to our cloud hosting platform is also very simple and takes as little as several clicks. You are also going to be able to register child name servers under each and every one of your domain addresses as an element of the free DNS control services which we offer with each and every plan and have ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com. The latter can be used for every domain you accommodate within the semi-dedicated account, so if you offer services to third-parties and host their web sites, using this feature is going to give you more credibility as a business.
