Any active domain name that's added in a hosting account has a variety of records that permit it to perform properly. In the common case, the name servers (NS records) show where the Internet domain is hosted and they're set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are specific records set through the hosting company such as A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e mail server), SRV (employing a domain for non-website purposes on a specific port number like Voice-over-IP), and so on. With access to these records and by being in a position to modify them, you could have your web site with company A and your e-mail messages with company B, for example. This gives you more overall flexibility because you can choose the best provider for every single one of these services and you don't have to stick to a single company. When you choose a hosting company, you have to make sure that you can access all DNS records freely since some providers have an extra fee for this feature.
Full DNS Management in Shared Hosting
The user-friendly Hepsia hosting CP, which comes with every Linux shared hosting we offer, will provide you with full access to all domain names that are hosted in the account. With just a couple of mouse clicks you're going to be able to see the DNS records of any domain name that you host or subdomain which you set up. You could also set up or modify any kind of record that you would like, based upon what you would like to do - A, AAAA, MX, TXT, SRV, CNAME, and so on. This will allow 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 forth. You can even register private name servers for every domain that you've 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 in the same account. The full DNS management service is offered absolutely free of charge.
Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Servers
You'll have full control of the DNS records of your domain names and subdomains if you purchase one of our semi-dedicated server plans. The accounts are maintained through our custom Hepsia Control Panel and one of its features is an advanced, though very simple to use section where you can see, create or modify any kind of record - A, MX, CNAME, NS, AAAA, TXT and SRV. There's no fee for that and you're going to have complete freedom with regards to managing your domain addresses and selecting the best service for them. For instance, with just a few mouse clicks you can set up any one of the domains in your account to have its site handled by one provider and its emails by another, you can also use a domain name as a host name for a VOIP server, which runs on a different machine. Additionally you can set up and use private name servers so that you can give your domains more credibility in case that somebody checks them.
