Any active domain name that's added in a hosting account has a variety of records which allow it to perform properly. In the common case, the name servers (NS records) show the location where the domain name is hosted and they are set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are particular records created through the hosting company such as A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e mail server), SRV (employing a domain address for non-website purposes on a certain port number like Voice-over-IP), etc. By having access to these records and by being in a position to modify them, you may have your web site with company A and your e-mails with company B, for instance. This gives you more independence as you can select the best provider for each of these services and you don't have to stick with only one company. After you select a hosting company, you have to make certain that you can access all DNS records freely as some companies have an extra fee for this feature.
Full DNS Management in Cloud Hosting
The user-friendly Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with every single Linux cloud package we offer, offers you full access to all domain addresses which are hosted inside the account. With just a few clicks you're going to be able to see the DNS records for each domain you host or subdomain which you create. You may also create or edit any sort of record you want, based on what you need to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so on. This will allow you to define an email server, direct a domain to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, set up forwarding, and so forth. You can also register private name servers for any domain that you have purchased through our company and use them instead of our default ones not only for this domain, but also for any other domain which will be hosted inside the same account. The whole DNS administration service is provided absolutely free of charge.
Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you get a semi-dedicated server from us, we will provide you with 100 % control over all DNS records of every single domain or subdomain inside your hosting account. The DNS Records tool of our in-house built Hepsia CP is simple and intuitive enough to be used even by individuals without experience, plus it comes with an extensive help section that features not only articles, but also thorough video tutorials. With a few clicks you can see all existing records and you could create new ones just as easily. This will allow you to use different services with separate companies for a given domain because you can have separate A (web server) and MX (mail server) records. Additionally, you'll be able to create AAAA, SRV, TXT as well as CNAME records to forward your domain name or use it for a certain non-website service including VOIP, game server host, etc. If you wish, you can even set up private name servers for any of the domain addresses registered through our company at no extra cost.
