The Name Servers of a domain reveal the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the website (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 directed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open an Internet site, for example, and you insert the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then pointed to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the web site is obtained, enabling you to see the content from the correct location. Usually a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is just visual.
NS Records in Shared Website Hosting
If you register a domain name in a shared website hosting account from our company, you are going to be able to take care of its name servers easily. This is accomplished using the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel and with just a couple of clicks you are going to be able to update the NS records of one or even a number of domains at the same time, which can save you time and efforts when you have a lot of domain addresses that you'd like to point to a different service provider. You can enter many name servers depending on how many the other company gives you. We allow you to set up private name servers for every domain registered via our company and in contrast to many other providers we don't charge anything more for this service. The new NS records can be used to direct any other domain name to the hosting platform of the company whose IP addresses you have used during the process, so every time you use our IPs for example, all domain names added to the account on our end can use these name servers.
