The Name Servers of a domain name point out the DNS servers that deal with its DNS records. The IP of the web site (A record), the mail server that takes care of the e-mails for a domain name (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), pointing (CNAME record) and so forth are taken from the DNS servers of the hosting company and for any domain address to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it should have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open an Internet site, for example, and you type the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain name and the request is then forwarded to the DNS servers of the webhosting provider where the A record of the web site is obtained, enabling you to see the content from the correct location. Commonly a domain name has two name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is just visual.
