Every domain name which is registered and hosted has lots of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up by hand if needed. For instance, the A record of a domain is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the site is situated; the MX records show where the e-mails are stored, while using an SRV record you can use a domain name for unconventional purposes, like a Voice-over-IP service. Being able to create and modify particular records enables you to have different services with different providers if, for example, your current host provides stable web hosting, but has difficulties with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a certain company. Although you should be able to set up and modify these records freely and without any limitations as you own a given domain name, a lot of companies charge extra to give you this option.

Full DNS Management in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You'll have full control over the DNS records of your domain addresses and subdomains if you buy any of our semi-dedicated server plans. The accounts are managed through our custom made Hepsia CP and one of its features is an innovative, albeit super easy to use section where you could see, create or modify any kind of record - A, MX, CNAME, NS, AAAA, TXT or SRV. There's no fee for that and you're going to have complete freedom with regards to managing your domain names and picking the best service for them. For instance, with just a couple of clicks you can set up each of the domain addresses within your account to have its web site handled by one provider and its e-mails by another, or you can use a domain address as a host name for a VOIP server, which runs on a separate machine. You may also create and use private name servers so that you can give your domains more credibility in case that somebody checks them.
