How to Find Your Nameservers

Home » Help » Hosting » How to Find Your Nameservers

Nameservers, known also as domain name servers, or simply as NS, translate the human-readable domain names into machine-readable IP addresses. Nameservers also point your registered domain to a specific server.

Should you wish to understand how to find your nameservers, then follow the instructions in this easy-to-follow guide.

 

How to Find Your Nameservers

There are two main ways you can use to find your nameservers.

 

Method 1: Use an Online Tool

Various tools can show you the DNS records of your registered domain. One such is our own DNS lookup tool:

Method 2: Use the Hosting Control Panel of Your Domain Registrar

Hosting registrars oftentimes provide their clients with control panels via which clients can quickly find their nameservers.

If you have registered or transferred your domain with AwardSpace, here’s how to find your nameserver.

 

Step 1: Log in to the AwardSpace hosting control panel

Do so by clicking the blue Login button from the AwardSpace homepage:

Log in to the AwardSpace hosting control panel

 

Once you click the button, a new page will appear. Once you see it, add your Client ID/Email and Password, and hit the blue Login button:

Add your AwardSpace credentials to log in the hosting panel

 

Once you add your credentials and click on Login, you will enter the AwardSpace hosting control panel:

Once you click on Domain Manager, a new page will open. It contains a domain registration form, as well as a list of your registered domains in AwardSpace:

From the list with hosted domain names, locate the one you wish to find the nameservers of and click on the small + symbol on the left of the domain:

Find the domain you wish to analyze

 

Once you click the +, a new menu with options will appear beneath the domain name:

Find the domain you wish to analyze and browse the options below the name

 

From this menu, click on the blue Name Servers button:

To find the nameservers of your domain, click on the Name Servers button

 

Clicking this button will display a box with information about the nameservers of this particular domain:
