The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP address of the web site (A record), the mail server that deals with the e-mails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) etc are obtained from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider and for any domain to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open an Internet site, for instance, and you enter the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the website is obtained, so you can see the content from the right location. Ordinarily a domain name has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is simply visual.
NS Records in Cloud Hosting
Managing the NS records for any domain name registered in a cloud hosting account on our cutting-edge cloud platform is going to take you only seconds. Using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool in the Hepsia Control Panel, you are going to be able to change the name servers not only of one domain, but even of multiple domain names simultaneously in case that you need to point them all to the same website hosting provider. Exactly the same steps will also allow you to point newly transferred domain names to our platform because the transfer process will not change the name servers automatically and the domains will still direct to the old host. If you want to set up private name servers for a domain registered on our end, you're going to be able to do that with just a few mouse clicks and with no additional charge, so in case you have a company web site, as an example, it'll have more credibility if it employs name servers of its own. The newly created private name servers can be used for forwarding any other domain to the same account also, besides the one they're created for.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
The name servers for every single domain address which is registered through our company could be changed with no more than a few mouse clicks via the leading-edge, though easy-to-use Hepsia Control Panel that comes with all semi-dedicated server plans. It is just as effortless to view the current NS records for a specific domain address and to determine if they're the ones that are necessary for the domain name to be pointed to your hosting account. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to allow you to control any domain name with ease even if you have never dealt with such matters before. If you wish, you may also register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not just for the domain address under which they are created, but also for any other domain address that you would like to host within the exact same account. This feature is very handy if you have clients of your own and you wish their websites to use your own name servers in lieu of our default ones. The service is available totally free.
