NS Records

The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The IP of the site (A record), the mail server that takes care of the e-mails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (CNAME record) etc are extracted from the DNS servers of the hosting provider and for any domain to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open a website, for instance, and you insert the URL, the Internet 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 web site is obtained, so you can view the content from the right location. Usually a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Shared Hosting

The innovative Hepsia CP, which comes with our shared hosting packages, will permit you to take care of the name servers of every single domain address registered through our company with just a couple of clicks, so even though you may haven't had a web hosting plan or a domain name before, you won't encounter any problems. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, has a very user-friendly interface and it'll enable you to change the NS records of any domain address or even a number of domains all at once. We offer you the opportunity to create child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for each domain name registered in the account just as easily and all you need for that is a couple of IP addresses - either ours, if you're going to use the child NS to direct the domain to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party provider if you'll use the new records to point the domain to their system. Unlike other providers, we don't charge additional for providing this additional DNS management service.

NS Records in Semi-dedicated Servers

The name servers for any domain name that's registered through us could be changed with no more than a few clicks through the sophisticated, albeit easy-to-use Hepsia CP included with all semi-dedicated server plans. It's just as easy to view the current NS records for a specific domain address and to determine if they're the ones that are needed 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 enable you to manage any domain address with ease even if you have never dealt with such matters before. If you wish, you can even register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not only for the domain name under which they're set up, but also for any other domain name that you might want to host inside the very same account. This feature is very useful if you have clients of your own and you want their web sites to use your own name servers in lieu of our default ones. The service is available totally free.
