Every single domain which is registered and hosted has a great deal of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be created by hand if needed. As an illustration, the A record of a domain is its IP address i.e. this record reveals where the web site is located; the MX records show where the e-mails are managed, while with an SRV record you can use a domain name for unconventional purposes, including a Voice-over-IP service. The ability to set up and modify specific records permits you to have different services with different providers if, for example, your current host provides stable web hosting, but has problems with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a specific company. Although you should be able to set up and edit these records freely and with no limits as you own a given domain name, lots of companies charge extra to give you this option.

Full DNS Management in Cloud Hosting

The user-friendly Hepsia hosting CP, that comes with every Linux cloud hosting service that we offer, will provide you with total access to all domain names that are hosted within the account. With simply several mouse clicks you're going to be able to see the DNS records for every domain which you host or subdomain which you create. You could also set up or modify any type 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 a mail server, point a domain to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, create forwarding, and so forth. You can also register private name servers for each domain name you have bought through us and use them instead of our default ones not just for this domain name, but also for any other domain which will be hosted within the same account. The whole DNS management service is offered absolutely free of charge.

This will permit you to use different services with separate companies for a given domain address because you can have separate A (web server) and MX (email server) records. You will also be able to set up AAAA, SRV, TXT or CNAME records to forward your domain address or use it for a specific non-website service such as VOIP, game server host, and so forth. If you wish, you may even set up private name servers for any one of the domains registered through our company free of charge.
