The Name Servers of a domain show the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the site (A record), the mail server that deals with the emails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) and so forth are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting company and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open an Internet site, for example, and you input the URL, the 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 webhosting provider where the A record of the web site is retrieved, enabling you to see the content from the proper location. Normally a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is just visual.
NS Records in Cloud Web Hosting
If you register a domain name within a cloud web hosting account from our company, you're going to be able to control its name servers easily. This can be done through the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia website hosting CP and with a few mouse clicks you'll be able to update the NS records of a single one or even several domain names at a time, which will save you considerable time and efforts in case you have a huge number of domain addresses that you would like to redirect to an alternative provider. You can enter multiple name servers depending on how many the other company offers you. In addition we enable you to create private name servers for each and every domain name registered via our company and in contrast to many other providers we do not charge anything extra for this service. The newly created NS records can be used to forward any other domain to the hosting platform of the company whose IP addresses you have used during the process, so when you use our IPs in particular, all domain addresses added to the account on our end can use these name servers.
