Each domain name which is registered and hosted has a lot of DNS records - some of them are set up automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up by hand if needed. For example, the A record of a domain address is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the website is situated; the MX records reveal where the emails are handled, while through an SRV record you can use a domain name for unconventional purposes, like a Voice-over-IP service. To be able to create and modify certain records enables you to have different services with different providers if, for illustration, your present host provides good web hosting, but has difficulties with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a particular service from a specific company. Though you must be able to set up and edit these records freely and with no limits as you own a given domain address, many companies charge extra to give you this option.

Full DNS Management in Cloud Web Hosting

The user-friendly Hepsia hosting Control Panel, that comes with each and every Linux cloud web hosting package that we offer, will provide you with 100 % access to all domains which are hosted inside the account. With simply several mouse clicks you are going to be able to see the DNS records for each and every domain you host or subdomain that you set up. You could also create or modify any sort of record that you'd like, based upon what you would like to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so on. This will permit you to define an email server, point a domain to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, create forwarding, and so on. You can also register private name servers for every domain that you've bought through our company and use them instead of our standard ones not only for this domain, but also for any other domain that'll be hosted within the same account. The whole DNS administration service is provided absolutely free of charge.
