Each domain that's registered and hosted has quite a lot of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up by hand if needed. As an example, the A record of a domain address is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the site is located; the MX records show where the e-mails are stored, while through an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, for instance a Voice-over-IP service. Being able to set up and modify particular records enables you to have different services with different companies if, for example, your current host provides good web hosting, but has difficulties with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a specific company. Even though you will be able to create and modify these records freely and with no limits as you own a given domain name, many companies charge extra to give you this option.

Full DNS Management in Website Hosting

The user-friendly Hepsia hosting CP, that comes with each Linux website hosting we offer, provides you with total access to all domain addresses that are hosted within the account. With only a few clicks you're going to be able to see the DNS records of any domain name that you host or subdomain that you create. You can also set up or modify any type of record that you like, based on what you need to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so forth. This will permit you to define an email server, point a domain to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, create forwarding, and so on. You may also register private name servers for each domain you have purchased through our company 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 complete DNS management service is provided absolutely free of charge.
