The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that handle its DNS records. The IP of the website (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (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 forwarded to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open a site, for example, 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 redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the site is retrieved, allowing you to look at the content from the correct location. Normally a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Shared Web Hosting

The innovative Hepsia Control Panel, offered with with our shared web hosting packages, will allow you to control the name servers of each and every domain address registered through our company with only a couple of mouse clicks, so even when you haven't had a hosting plan or a domain name before, you'll not encounter any difficulties. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, has a very user-friendly interface and will enable you to modify the NS records of any domain or even a number of domain addresses together. We provide you with the opportunity to create child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for each domain registered in the account just as easily and all you need for that is a couple of IP addresses - either ours, if you're 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 forward the domain to their system. Different from other providers, we don't charge additional for providing this additional DNS management service.
