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

Full DNS Management in Shared Website Hosting

With every shared website hosting we offer you can set up, remove or modify any DNS record for any domain name or subdomain hosted in your account with ease. The Hepsia Control Panel which we provide with the shared accounts features a simple and user-friendly tool which will allow you to see all existing records and set up new ones with simply several clicks. You are going to be able to set up A, MX, CNAME, TXT, SRV and AAAA records, which will provide you with 100 % control over your domain names as well as the chance to choose the company that will provide you with a given service. As an example, if your website is on our state-of-the-art cloud platform, it will require a couple of mouse clicks to point your emails to be managed by a different provider. As opposed to other registrar and hosting companies, we do not charge an additional fee to offer you the DNS management service.
