Adding a Record

Use the empty row at the bottom of the DNS table to add a new record:

• Type — Select the record type (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, etc.).
• Address — Enter the IP address or target value.
• TTL — Select how long DNS resolvers should cache this record (default: 10 minutes).

Click Save Changes when done.

Common DNS Records

• A Record — Points your domain to an IP address (e.g., your web server).
• CNAME — Creates an alias pointing to another domain name.
• MX Record — Directs email to your mail server. Requires a priority value.
• TXT Record — Used for verification (Google, SPF, DKIM, etc.).
