Each domain name that's registered and hosted has quite a lot of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up manually if required. For instance, the A record of a domain is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the site is located; the MX records show where the emails are stored, while using an SRV record you can use a domain address for unconventional purposes, like a Voice-over-IP service. The ability to set up and modify particular records allows you to have different services with different providers if, for example, your present host provides stable web hosting, but has troubles with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a particular service from a specific company. Even though you should be able to set up and edit these records freely and with no limits as you own a given domain name, some companies charge extra to give you this option.

Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you buy a semi-dedicated server from us, we are going to provide you with total control over all DNS records of any domain address or subdomain in your hosting account. The DNS Records tool of our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel is simple and intuitive enough to be used even by individuals with no experience, and it offers an extensive help section which includes not only articles, but also thorough video tutorials. With several clicks you can see all existing records and you can set up new ones just as easily. This will permit you to use different services with different companies for a given domain because you can have separate A (web server) and MX (email server) records. You'll be able to set up AAAA, SRV, TXT or CNAME records to forward your domain name or use it for a certain non-website service including VOIP, online game server host, and so on.
