How to Set up Private Nameservers

Here, we will show you how to set up private nameservers with Veeble Client Area.

What is a private nameserver?

Name servers are part of the DNS (Domain name system) database. This centralized archive converts domain names and hostnames into IP addresses. Nameservers redirect visitors to the proper location of your content when they type in your website’s URL.

Each hosting provider has its own set of nameservers. There can be two or more, and they usually look like this:

ns1.yourhostingprovider.com
ns2.yourhostingprovider.com

So how are private nameservers different?

With private name servers, you can practically brand your domain name records with your company’s name. You could change the default nameservers as follows:

ns1.yourbrand.com
ns2.yourbrand.com

Here, we will help you with the steps to do that…
