Every domain that's registered and hosted has lots of DNS records - some of them are set up automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up manually if needed. As an illustration, the A record of a domain address is its IP address i.e. this record reveals where the website is situated; the MX records reveal where the e-mails 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 certain records enables you to have different services with different companies if, for illustration, your current host provides stable web hosting, but has troubles with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a certain service from a particular company. While you must be able to set up and edit these records freely and without any restrictions as you own a given domain, some companies charge extra to give you this option.

Full DNS Management in Cloud Hosting

The user-friendly Hepsia hosting CP, that comes with each and every Linux cloud hosting we offer, gives you complete access to all domains that are hosted inside the account. With only a couple of mouse clicks you're going to be able to see the DNS records for each domain name you host or subdomain that you set up. You can also set up or edit any sort of record that you like, depending on what you wish to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so forth. This will permit you to define an e-mail server, direct a domain address to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, create forwarding, and so on. You can also register private name servers for each domain that you've acquired through our company and use them instead of our standard ones not only for this domain name, but also for any other domain that will be hosted inside the same account. The complete DNS administration service is provided absolutely free of charge.

Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you acquire a semi-dedicated server through our company, we will provide you with complete control over all DNS records of any domain name or subdomain within your hosting account. The DNS Records tool of our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel is simple and intuitive enough to be used even by people without any experience, and it comes with an extensive help section which includes not just articles, but also comprehensive video tutorials. With a few mouse clicks you can see all current records and you can create new ones just as easily. This will allow you to use different services with separate providers for a given domain as you can have separate A (web server) and MX (email server) records. Additionally, you'll be able to set up AAAA, SRV, TXT and CNAME records to forward your domain or use it for a particular non-website service including VOIP, game server host, and so on. If you want, you may also set up private name servers for any of the domain names registered through our company at no extra cost.
