The Name Servers of a domain show the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the site (A record), the mail server that handles the e-mails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so forth are extracted from the DNS servers of the web hosting company and for any domain name to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it has 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 name and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the site is retrieved, enabling you to look at the content from the correct location. Commonly a domain address 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 Web Hosting

The avant-garde Hepsia Control Panel, included with with our web hosting plans, will permit you to handle the name servers of each and every domain address registered through us with simply a few clicks, so even if you haven't had a web hosting plan or a domain before, you will not encounter any issues. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, comes with a very user-friendly interface and it will allow you to change the NS records of any domain or even a number of domains all at once. Additionally we offer you the chance to create 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 pair of IPs - either ours, if you're going to 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'll use the new records to forward the domain name to their system. Different from other providers, we don't charge more for providing this additional DNS management service.
