The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the website (A record), the mail server that takes care of the emails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) etc are taken from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any domain name to be using them and to be forwarded to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open a site, for example, and you type in the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then pointed to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the web site is retrieved, allowing you to view the content from the proper location. Commonly a domain has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is just visual.

: NS Records in Shared Website Hosting

The avant-garde Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with our shared website hosting plans, will permit you to handle the name servers of every single domain name registered through our company with only a few mouse clicks, so even when you have not had a web hosting plan or a domain address before, you'll not encounter any issues. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, has a very user-friendly interface and it'll permit you to edit the NS records of any domain or even a number of domains simultaneously. Additionally we offer you the opportunity to create child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for every single domain address registered in the account just as easily and all you need for that is a pair of IP addresses - either ours, if you are going to use the child NS to direct the domain to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party company if you will use the new records to redirect the domain to their system. Unlike other companies, we don't charge more for providing this additional DNS management service.
