The Name Servers of a domain name reveal the DNS servers that manage its DNS records. The Internet protocol 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) etc are obtained from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any Internet 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 wish to open an Internet site, for example, 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 pointed to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the site is retrieved, so that you can look at the content from the correct location. Ordinarily a domain address has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is only visual.
NS Records in Shared Hosting
Managing the NS records for any domain address registered within a shared hosting account on our state of the art cloud platform will take you just seconds. Using the feature-rich Domain Manager tool inside the Hepsia CP, you'll be able to change the name servers not only of one domain name, but even of multiple domains simultaneously when you want to forward them all to the same website hosting provider. Identical steps will also allow you to direct newly transferred domains to our platform since the transfer process is not going to change the name servers automatically and the domain names will still direct to the old host. If you want to create private name servers for a domain name registered on our end, you are going to be able to do that with only a couple of mouse clicks and with no additional charge, so if you decide to have a company site, for instance, it'll have more credibility if it employs name servers of its own. The new private name servers can be used for directing any other domain name to the same account too, besides the one they're created for.
NS Records in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you register a new domain address in a semi-dedicated server account or transfer an existing one from another registrar company, you're going to be able to update its NS records as needed without any difficulties even if you haven't had a domain of your own before. The process takes a couple of mouse clicks in Hepsia - the user-friendly control tool, which comes with our semi-dedicated plans. If you have multiple domain names within the account, you'll be able to update all of them simultaneously, which will save you quite a lot of time and clicks. Additionally you can see with ease the name servers that a domain uses and if they are the proper ones or not as a way for the domain address to be forwarded to the account that you have on our sophisticated cloud hosting platform. Hepsia will permit you to create private name servers under any domain name registered within the account and use them not only for that domain address, but also for every other one that you would like to direct to our cloud platform.
