Any active domain which is added in a hosting account features a number of records that enable it to work properly. In the typical case, the name servers (NS records) show 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 created 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 like Voice-over-IP), and many others. With access to these records and by being able to edit them, you may have your site with company A and your e-mails with company B, for example. This offers you more overall flexibility because you can select the best provider for each of these services and you do not have to stick to one company. As soon as 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 feature.
Full DNS Management in Web Hosting
The user-friendly Hepsia hosting CP, that comes with each and every Linux web hosting that we offer, will provide you with 100 % access to all domain addresses that are hosted inside the account. With simply a couple of clicks you are going to be able to see the DNS records of any domain name that you host or subdomain that you create. You can also create or modify any kind of record that you like, based on what you need to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so forth. This will permit you to define an e-mail server, point 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 every domain that you have bought through our company and use them instead of our default ones not only for this domain, but also for any other domain which will be hosted within the same account. The whole DNS administration service is provided absolutely free of charge.
Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You will have total control over the DNS records of your domains and subdomains if you order any of our semi-dedicated server plans. The accounts are handled using our custom Hepsia CP and one of its features is a sophisticated, albeit very easy to use section where you can see, create or modify any type of record - A, MX, CNAME, NS, AAAA, TXT or SRV. There isn't any charge for that and you'll have total freedom in terms of managing your domains and choosing the best service for them. As an illustration, with simply a few mouse clicks you can set up any one of the domains within your account to have its site handled by one company and its e-mails by another, or you can use a domain as a host name for a VOIP server, which runs on a different machine. You could also create and use private name servers as a way to give your domains more credibility in case somebody checks them.
