Any active domain name which is added in a hosting account includes a variety of records that allow it to perform 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 certain records created through the hosting company like A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e mail server), SRV (employing a domain name for non-website purposes on a specific port number such as Voice-over-IP), and so on. By having access to these records and by having the ability to modify them, you can have your web site with company A and your e-mails with company B, for example. This gives you more freedom as you can pick the best provider for each of these services and you don't need to stick with a single company. Whenever you choose a hosting company, you have to make certain that you can access all DNS records freely as some providers have an extra fee for this function.

Full DNS Management in Cloud Hosting

The user-friendly Hepsia hosting Control Panel, that comes with each and every Linux cloud package that we offer, offers you complete access to all domain names that are hosted inside the account. With simply a few mouse clicks you will be able to see the DNS records for each domain name that you host or subdomain which you set up. You could also set up or modify any type of record you want, based upon what you wish to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so on. This will allow you to define an email server, direct a domain address to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, set up forwarding, and so on. You may also register private name servers for each domain that you have obtained through us and use them instead of our default ones not only for this domain, but also for any other domain that'll be hosted in the same account. The full DNS administration service is offered totally free of charge.
