Any active domain name which is added in a hosting account includes a number of records which allow it to perform properly. In the general case, the name servers (NS records) show the location where the Internet domain is hosted and they are set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are specific records set through the hosting company like A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e mail server), SRV (employing an Internet domain for non-website purposes on a specific port number such as Voice-over-IP), and so on. With access to these records and by being able to modify them, you could have your site with company A and your emails with company B, for instance. This offers you more flexibility since you can choose the best provider for each of these services and you don't have to stick with one company. When you select a hosting company, you have to make sure that you have access to all DNS records freely since some providers have an extra fee for this function.

Full DNS Management in Website Hosting

You are going to have full control over the DNS records of your domain names and subdomains with each of our website hosting plans. Through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, you will be able to access an easy-to-use tool where you can see all present records or create new ones with no more than a few clicks. In addition to the standard A and MX records, you can create CNAME, TXT, SRV, and you could even set up private name servers for any domain address that's registered through our company. The custom records will provide you with a lot of overall flexibility and will permit you to do things such as hosting a subdomain on our servers while the main Internet domain is hosted elsewhere or the other way around, employing a third-party e-mail service, and so on. We're never going to ask for any fees from you to be able to manage the DNS records of your domains and the service comes by default with all shared plans.

Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you purchase a semi-dedicated server from us, we'll provide you with complete control over all DNS records of every domain or subdomain within your hosting account. The DNS Records tool of our in-house built Hepsia CP is simple and intuitive enough to be used even by people without experience, and it offers an in-depth help section that includes not only articles, but also comprehensive video tutorials. With several clicks you can see all current records and you can create new ones just as easily. This will allow you to use different services with different providers for a given domain since you can have separate A (web server) and MX (e-mail server) records. You'll also be able to create AAAA, SRV, TXT as well as CNAME records to forward your domain address or use it for a particular non-website service including VOIP, game server host, and many others. If you'd like, you may even create private name servers for any one of the domain names registered through our company at no extra cost.
