The Name Servers of a domain name point out the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP address of the website (A record), the mail server that handles the emails 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 website hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be pointed to their hosting platform, it has to have their name servers, or NS records. If you want to open a website, for instance, and you insert the URL, the web 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 webhosting provider where the A record of the web site is retrieved, enabling you to view the content from the correct location. Normally a domain has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.

The avant-garde Hepsia CP, offered with with our cloud website hosting packages, allows you to take care of the name servers of any domain address registered through our company with simply a few clicks, so even though you may haven't had a website hosting plan or a domain address before, you simply won't encounter any problems. The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, has a very user-friendly interface and it'll allow you to change the NS records of any domain address or even a number of domain names simultaneously. In addition we provide you with the chance to set up child name servers dns1.your-domain.com and dns2.your-domain.com for any domain name registered in the account just as easily and all you need for that is a pair of IP addresses - either ours, if you will use the child NS to forward the domain name to the account on our cloud platform, or the ones of the third-party company if you'll use the new records to redirect the domain name to their system. In contrast to other providers, we do not charge extra for providing this additional DNS management service.

The Domain Manager tool, which is a part of Hepsia, is user-friendly enough to allow you to control any domain address easily even if you have not dealt with such matters before. If you wish, you can also register private name servers ns1.your-domain.com and ns2.your-domain.com and use them not just for the domain name under which they're created, but also for any other domain address that you might want to host inside the same account. This feature is very handy if you have customers of your own and you would like their websites to use your own name servers rather than our default ones. The service is 100 % free.
