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 created manually if necessary. For example, the A record of a domain name is its IP address i.e. this record reveals where the site is located; the MX records show where the emails are handled, while through an SRV record you can use a domain address for unconventional purposes, for instance a Voice-over-IP service. The ability to create and modify specific records enables you to have different services with different companies if, for illustration, your present host provides dependable web hosting, but has issues with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a particular service from a specific company. Although you will be able to set up and modify these records freely and with no limits as you own a given domain address, lots of companies charge extra to give you this option.
Full DNS Management in Hosting
The user-friendly Hepsia hosting Control Panel, that comes with every Linux hosting package we offer, provides you with total access to all domain addresses which are hosted inside the account. With just a couple of mouse clicks you'll be able to see the DNS records for every domain that you host or subdomain that you set up. You can also set up or edit any type of record that you would like, depending on what you need to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so forth. This will permit you to define a mail server, direct a domain name to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, set up forwarding, and so on. You can also register private name servers for each domain that you have acquired through our company and use them instead of our standard ones not just for this domain, but also for any other domain which will be hosted within the same account. The full DNS administration service is provided free of charge.
Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Hosting
The Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages are managed using our in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel and one of its features is an easy-to-use DNS records tool where you can see all existing records for every single domain address or subdomain that you host within the account. With just a few clicks you'll be able to change any existing record or create a new one should you need it for any purpose. This will enable you to choose the provider for each individual service - as an illustration, for a given domain address you can have the website here, the e-mails through a second company plus a VOIP service that uses the same domain as a host through a third one. Our system allows you to change or set up any kind of records that you need - NS, A, MX, CNAME, TXT, SRV, AAAA, and so on., and we'll never ask for any fee to be able to access and manage these records as other companies may do.
