The Name Servers of a domain reveal the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The IP address of the web 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) and so forth are taken from the DNS servers of the web hosting company and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open an Internet site, for instance, and you enter the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the site is obtained, so that you can view the content from the proper location. Ordinarily a domain name has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Cloud Web Hosting

Taking care of the NS records for any domain name registered in a cloud web hosting account on our cutting-edge cloud platform is going to take you merely seconds. Through the feature-rich Domain Manager tool in the Hepsia CP, you are going to be able to change the name servers not just of one domain name, but even of several domain addresses at the same time whenever you intend to direct them all to the same hosting provider. The very same steps will also permit you to direct newly transferred domain names to our platform since the transfer process doesn't change the name servers automatically and the domains will still direct to the old host. If you'd like to create private name servers for an Internet domain registered on our end, you will be able to do that with just a few clicks and with no additional charge, so in case you have a company website, for instance, it'll have more credibility if it employs name servers of its own. The newly created private name servers can be used for pointing any other domain to the same account too, besides the one they're created for.
