DNS stands for the Domain Name Service, the software and protocols that translate a domain name like www.yourdomain.com into an address that internet servers understand (IP addresses) such as 213.219.9.47.

A request for such a translation is called a DNS query. DNS servers contain a database of information on which domain name should be pointed to which server.

In order for your domain name to point to your website you must have entries in at least 2 DNS servers, a Primary and Secondary DNS. Fusion host all DNS entries for sites hosted on Fusion servers.

You may need to transfer your DNS entries from either the place you bought the name from or from your previous web hosting company.

Primary DNS: NS0.SERVE.CO.UK
  212.69.192.10
   
Secondary DNS: NS0.SERVE.NET.UK
  212.69.192.11

Alternatively, for domain names that end in '.co.uk', your current hosting service may require an IPS tag. The system of IPS tags has been introduced to ease the process of transferring domain names. The IPS tag for the Fusion servers is DSVR.

Note: It is extremely important that we know your domain names are going to be repointed to the Fusion servers, and that Fusion have agreed to host your DNS entries.
