Any active domain which is added in a hosting account features a number of records which allow it to function properly. In the standard case, the name servers (NS records) show the location where the domain is hosted and they are set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are particular records set through the hosting company like A (IP address of the website/server), MX (email server), SRV (using a domain address for non-website purposes on a certain port number like Voice-over-IP), and many others. Having access to these records and by being in a position to modify them, you can have your site with company A and your e-mails with company B, for example. This offers you more independence since you can select the best provider for every one of these services and you don't need to stick to a single company. After you choose a hosting company, you have to make certain that you can access all DNS records freely because some companies have an extra fee for this function.
Full DNS Management in Cloud Hosting
The user-friendly Hepsia hosting Control Panel, that comes with every cloud hosting service that we offer, will provide you with total access to all domains that are hosted in the account. With simply several mouse clicks you're going to be able to see the DNS records of any domain name you host or subdomain which you set up. You can also create or modify any type of record you want, based upon what you need to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so on. This will permit you to define a mail server, direct a domain address 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 you have bought through us and use them instead of our standard ones not just for this domain name, but also for any other domain that will be hosted in the same account. The complete DNS administration service is offered totally free of charge.
Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Servers
With our Linux semi-dedicated service, you are going to have complete control over the records of every Internet domain or subdomain hosted within the account. Our cutting-edge Hepsia hosting CP includes a simple-to-use tool, which will make the creation and management of DNS records very easy even if you have little experience or you haven't done such a thing before. It will require only a couple of clicks to set up or modify any sort of record - A, AAAA, MX, CNAME, SRV, TXT. That way, you can choose the provider you'll use for a specific service, so you can have your site here and the emails with a different provider or vice versa, direct your Internet domains to other domains, create a VOIP service that runs on its own server or even multiple servers, and so on. The DNS management option is offered with every semi-dedicated plan by default and at no additional cost.
