The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The IP address of the site (A record), the mail server that manages the e-mails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), forwarding (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 pointed to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you would like to open an Internet site, for instance, and you enter the URL, the browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain address and the request is then redirected to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the web site is obtained, enabling you to view the content from the proper location. Ordinarily a domain has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the distinction between the two is just visual.
