The Name Servers of a domain reveal the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the website (A record), the mail server that takes care of the emails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are obtained from the DNS servers of the web hosting provider and for any domain address to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open a site, for instance, and you enter the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then forwarded to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the web site is obtained, enabling you to see the content from the correct location. Normally a domain address has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.
NS Records in Website Hosting
Managing the NS records for any domain address registered inside a website hosting account on our top-notch cloud platform is going to take you just moments. Through the feature-rich Domain Manager tool inside the Hepsia Control Panel, you're going to be able to change the name servers not only of a single domain, but even of numerous domains at once whenever you need to point them all to the same website hosting provider. The very same steps will also allow you to forward newly transferred domain addresses to our platform since the transfer process does not change the name servers automatically and the domain addresses will still point to the old host. If you would like to create private name servers for an Internet domain registered on our end, you are going to be able to do that with only a few mouse clicks and with no additional charge, so if you have a company site, for instance, it will have more credibility if it uses name servers of its own. The new private name servers can be used for redirecting any other domain to the same account also, not only the one they're created for.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you choose a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you are going to be able to manage the NS records of every domain registered inside it easily. The Hepsia Control Panel, which is essentially an all-in-one tool for you to handle everything relevant to your web presence, offers a very simple and easy-to-use interface. The section where you will find all your domain addresses is not an exception, so even if you have never had a domain name and a hosting account before, updating the name servers or entering additional ones is not going to take you more than a several mouse clicks. You'll also be able to see with a glance what name servers each and every one of your domain addresses uses right now and if they're the ones required to point that domain to the semi-dedicated account. As an additional feature, we present you with opportunity to create child name servers dns1/2.your-domain.com free of charge. This will give more credibility to your site, especially if it is a business one, and you could use these name servers for every other domain name that you would like to host within the semi-dedicated account as well.
