The Name Servers of a domain reveal the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the site (A record), the mail server that handles the emails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) and so on are extracted from the DNS servers of the website hosting provider and for any domain to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open an Internet site, for instance, and you type in the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the hosting provider where the A record of the website is retrieved, enabling you to view the content from the correct location. Usually a domain address has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is simply visual.

NS Records in Cloud Hosting

If you use a cloud hosting from our us and you register a new domain in the account or transfer an existing one from a different provider, you're going to be able to handle its NS records effortlessly via the Hepsia website hosting CP, provided with all shared accounts. You'll be able to change the current name servers or enter additional ones for a single domain address or even for several domain addresses at the same time with several mouse clicks. This is done through the feature-rich Domain Manager tool which is a part of Hepsia and the user-friendly interface is going to make it simple to handle your domain name even if it's the first one you've ever registered. It takes simply a mouse click to see what name servers a domain name uses at the moment or if they're the correct ones to point a domain to the hosting space on our end and with a few clicks more you will even be able to register private name servers for any of the domains that you own. For the latter option you can use the IP addresses of each company that you'd like the new NS records to direct to.
