Each and every domain name that's registered and hosted has a lot of DNS records - some of them are set up automatically when you host a domain, others can be created manually if necessary. As an example, the A record of a domain address is its IP address i.e. this record reveals where the web site is situated; the MX records show where the e-mails are handled, while through an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, for instance a Voice-over-IP service. The ability to set up and modify specific records allows you to have different services with different companies if, for example, your current host provides stable web hosting, but has issues with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a particular company. Though you will be able to set up and edit these records freely and without any restrictions as you own a given domain, many companies charge extra to give you this option.

Full DNS Management in Cloud Hosting

The user-friendly Hepsia hosting CP, that comes with every single cloud hosting plan that we offer, offers you 100 % access to all domain names which are hosted inside the account. With simply a few clicks you're going to be able to see the DNS records for each domain name which you host or subdomain which you create. You could also set up or modify any kind of record that you'd like, depending on what you would like to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so forth. This will allow you to define a mail server, point a domain to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, create forwarding, etc. You can also register private name servers for every domain name you have obtained through us and use them instead of our standard ones not just for this domain, but also for any other domain which will be hosted inside the same account. The full DNS administration service is provided totally free of charge.

Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you acquire a semi-dedicated server from our company, we will provide you with 100 % control over all DNS records of every single domain or subdomain inside your hosting account. The DNS Records tool of our in-house built Hepsia CP is simple and intuitive enough to be used even by individuals without any experience, and it offers an extensive help section which includes not only articles, but also in-depth video tutorials. With a few mouse clicks you can see all current records and you can set up new ones just as easily. This will permit you to use different services with different providers for a given domain address because you can have separate A (web server) and MX (mail server) records. You will also be able to set up AAAA, SRV, TXT and CNAME records to forward your domain address or use it for a particular non-website service like VOIP, online game server host, and so forth. If you would like, you may also create private name servers for each of the domain names registered through our company totally free.
