The Name Servers of a domain name show the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP of the website (A record), the mail server that manages the emails for a domain (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so on are extracted from the DNS servers of the web hosting provider and for any Internet domain to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a website, for example, and you type the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the site is obtained, enabling you to view the content from the proper location. Usually a domain address has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is just visual.

NS Records in Shared Hosting

If you register a domain name in a shared hosting account from our company, you'll be able to manage its name servers with ease. This is done using the Registered Domains section of the in-house built Hepsia hosting CP and with just a couple of mouse clicks you will be able to update the NS records of one or even several domain names at a time, which could save you considerable time and efforts if you have a huge number of domain addresses you want to forward to a different service provider. You can enter numerous name servers depending on how many the other company offers you. In addition we permit you to create private name servers for each domain name registered using our company and unlike many other companies we don't charge anything additional for this service. The new NS records can be used to redirect any other domain name to the hosting platform of the company whose IPs you have used during the process, so when you use our IPs for example, all domains added to the account on our end can use these name servers.
