It\u2019s basically an all-encompassing archive that <strong>\u201ctranslates\u201d domains and hostnames into IP addresses<\/strong>.

They can be two or more, and often look like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ns1.yourhostingprovider.com<br>ns2.yourhostingprovider.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So how are private name servers different?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This feature practically allows you to brand your domain name records with the name of your company. Following the example above, you could change the default nameservers to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ns1.owndomainname.com<br>ns2.owndomainname.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This advanced branding brings in a lot of benefits, especially if you\u2019re reselling web hosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"private-name-servers\">Private Name Servers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coimbatorewebhosting.com\/unlimited-coimbatore-web-hosting\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Shared web hosting<\/a> =&gt;<\/strong> You must use our generic name servers.
