What is an NS Record? 

A DNS NS record is a type of resource record that gives you the ability to link your domain name with a specific set of name servers. These name servers are responsible for accepting queries from other computers and routing them to the correct location. It is used to identify which servers will answer queries relating to a specific domain name.For more information on this, check out our detailed guide on DNS NS records.

Benefits of a DNS NS Record Lookup

  • A DNS NS record is a record that lists the nameservers that are authoritative for a domain. It can be used to specify more than one nameserver in case the primary server is down, or to specify backup nameservers if you want to specify multiple servers in case your main server fails.
  • DNS NS records help improve the speed with which your website loads by caching the IP addresses of your name servers. If you are experiencing slow load times, it may be because the client computer has not cached these IP addresses yet, so any request for information about your domain will take longer than normal until it caches them.
