NS Record

An NS (Name Server) record is a part of a domain's DNS (Domain Name System) setup that indicates which servers are responsible for managing and providing the authoritative information about that domain’s website and email addresses. Think of it as a contact list that points your computer to the correct server to find the website or service you're trying to reach. When you type a website address, NS records help direct your request to the appropriate server that has the official information about that domain, ensuring reliable and accurate online connections.
