Nameservers

What is a nameserver?

A name server is a critical part of the DNS (Domain Name System). In simple terms, DNS is responsible for answering queries asked about domain names. An authoritative name server is where the DNS records are stored for your domain name. Whenever you type a domain name into a web browser, it is the nameservers that are used to find the IP address and help make your connection to the site.

What are Make Me Dev's nameservers?

Our nameservers are:

  • ns1.stackdns.com

  • ns3.stackdns.com
  • ns4.stackdns.com

All newly registered domains will automatically be assigned these nameservers.

Where can I view the nameservers of a domain?

To check what nameservers a domain is using:

  1. Log into the Make Me Dev Portal
