The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP address of the web site (A record), the mail server that handles the e-mails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) and so forth are obtained from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any domain to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a website, for instance, and you type the URL, the 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 hosting provider where the A record of the web site is retrieved, so you can look at the content from the right location. Usually a domain name has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Cloud Hosting

The innovative Hepsia CP, which comes with our cloud hosting packages, will permit you to take care of the name servers of each and every domain address registered through our company with simply a few mouse clicks, so even when you have never had a hosting plan or a domain name before, you'll not encounter any troubles. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, has a very user-friendly interface and it will permit you to modify the NS records of any domain address or even a number of domain names simultaneously. We give you the chance to create child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for each and every domain name registered in the account just as easily and all you need for that is a pair of IP addresses - either ours, if you will use the child NS to point the domain to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party company if you'll use the new records to redirect the domain name to their system. Different from other companies, we don't charge additional for providing this additional DNS management service.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you register a new domain address inside a semi-dedicated server account or transfer an existing one from another registrar provider, you are going to be able to update its NS records as required without any issues even if you have not had a domain name of your own before. The process takes several mouse clicks in Hepsia - the user-friendly administration tool, included with our semi-dedicated solutions. If you have several domain names inside the account, you will be able to update all of them simultaneously, which can save you a lot of time and clicks. Additionally you can see with ease the name servers that a domain uses and if they are the proper ones or not in order for the domain to be forwarded to the account that you have on our leading-edge cloud hosting platform. Hepsia will also enable you to create private name servers under any domain registered within the account and use them not just for that domain address, but also for any other one that you would like to direct to our cloud platform.
