Any active domain name that is added in a hosting account features a number of records which allow it to function properly. In the typical 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 particular records set through the hosting company such as A (IP address of the website/server), MX (email server), SRV (employing a domain name 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 modify them, you could have your website with company A and your e-mails with company B, for instance. This offers you more flexibility because you can choose the best provider for each of these services and you don't have to stick with a single company. After you pick a hosting company, you have to make certain that you have access to all DNS records freely as some providers have an extra fee for this function.

Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you buy a semi-dedicated server from our company, we are going to provide you with full control over all DNS records of every domain name or subdomain in your web hosting account. The DNS Records tool of our in-house built Hepsia CP is simple and intuitive enough to be used even by individuals without experience, and it offers an in-depth help section that includes not only articles, but also detailed video tutorials. With several mouse clicks you can see all current records and you can create new ones just as easily. This will permit you to use different services with separate companies for a given domain because you can have separate A (web server) and MX (email server) records. You'll also be able to set up AAAA, SRV, TXT as well as CNAME records to forward your domain address or use it for a particular non-website service like VOIP, game server host, and so forth. If you want, you can even create private name servers for each of the domain names registered through our company free of charge.
