Any active domain name which is added in a hosting account features a number of records that permit it to perform properly. In the common 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 particular records set through the hosting company such as A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e-mail server), SRV (using an Internet domain for non-website purposes on a particular port number like Voice-over-IP), etc. With access to these records and by being able to modify them, you could have your web site with company A and your emails with company B, for illustration. This offers you more independence as you can pick the best provider for each of these services and you don't need to stick to only one company. Whenever you select a hosting company, you have to make certain that you can access all DNS records freely because some providers have an extra fee for this feature.
Full DNS Management in Cloud Hosting
The user-friendly Hepsia hosting Control Panel, that comes with each and every cloud plan that we offer, provides you with full access to all domains which are hosted inside the account. With simply a couple of mouse clicks you'll be able to see the DNS records of any domain that you host or subdomain which you create. You can also create or edit any sort of record that you would like, based upon what you need to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, etc. This will enable you to define a mail server, direct a domain address to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, create forwarding, etc. You can also register private name servers for every domain that you have bought through our company and use them instead of our standard ones not only for this domain name, but also for any other domain that'll be hosted inside the same account. The complete DNS administration service is offered totally free of charge.
