The Name Servers of a domain point out the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The IP of the website (A record), the mail server that takes care of the e-mails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so forth are obtained from the DNS servers of the web hosting company and for any domain name to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it ought to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open an Internet site, for instance, and you input the URL, the Internet browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then forwarded to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the web site is retrieved, allowing you to look at the content from the correct location. Usually a domain has a couple of name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the difference between the two is simply visual.
