What are 'Name Servers'? I was asked about Name Servers while placing order.
When you type a website address into your browser and press Enter, your browser begins decoding the page you’re looking for. The servers keeping all of the records for where a website is situated, are known as Name Servers.
If you acquired domain from one registrar and host it with another, make sure nameservers are set up correctly. Other domain names may need to be pointed to your website, mail server needs to be updated and you need to set up a private nameserver for your website.
