The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP of the website (A record), the mail server that takes care of the e-mails for a domain (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 Internet domain to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open an Internet site, for instance, and you insert the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address 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. Usually a domain address has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is only visual.

NS Records in Shared Hosting

Controlling the NS records for any domain name registered in a shared hosting account on our state of the art cloud platform will take you only seconds. Using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool inside the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to change the name servers not just of a single domain name, but even of many domain addresses at a time when you want to forward them all to the same hosting provider. The exact same steps will also permit you to direct newly transferred domain addresses to our platform as the transfer process does not change the name servers automatically and the domain addresses will still direct to the old host. If you wish to create private name servers for an Internet domain registered on our end, you'll be able to do that with only a couple of mouse clicks and with no additional charge, so if you have a company website, as an example, it will have more credibility if it uses name servers of its own. The new private name servers can be used for forwarding any other domain name to the same account too, not just the one they are created for.
