Any active domain that's added in a hosting account features a number of records that enable it to work properly. In the standard 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 specific records created through the hosting company like A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e mail server), SRV (employing a domain address for non-website purposes on a certain port number such as Voice-over-IP), and so on. With access to these records and by being in a position to edit them, you could have your website with company A and your e-mails with company B, for example. This offers you more overall flexibility because you can choose the best provider for each of these services and you do not have to stick to only one company. As soon as you pick a hosting company, you have to make certain that you can access all DNS records freely as some providers have an additional fee for this feature.

Full DNS Management in Shared Hosting

The user-friendly Hepsia hosting CP, that comes with each and every shared hosting that we offer, will provide you with 100 % access to all domains that are hosted within the account. With just several mouse clicks you're going to be able to see the DNS records for each domain name that you host or subdomain that you create. You could also set up or edit any kind of record you want, based on what you would like to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so forth. This will enable you to define an e-mail server, direct a domain to a VOIP or online game server provided by another company, set up forwarding, and so forth. You can even register private name servers for every Internet domain that you have bought through our company and use them instead of our standard ones not just for this domain, but also for any other domain which will be hosted within the same account. The whole DNS administration service is offered absolutely free of charge.
