Parked Domains: Using the DNS Manager Print

  • 0

When you park your domain names with UK-Cheapest.co.uk, you have full control over the management of your domain DNS records. Here's how it works:

1. Full Control Over DNS Records: You have complete control over various DNS record types, including A, CNAME, MX, and TXT. This flexibility allows you to configure your DNS records to suit your needs, whether you want to connect to services like Moonfruit or Google Apps Gmail.

2. Accessing the DNS Manager:

  • Log in to your Client Area and navigate to Domains > My Domains.
  • Locate the desired domain name and click on "Manage."
  • Select "Parking Tools" and choose "DNS Manager."
  • From here, you can add or delete DNS records as needed.

3. Real-Time Updates: Changes made to your DNS records take effect in real-time. There is no delay in submitting your record changes to the server, ensuring that your DNS configuration is up to date promptly.

4. DNS Templates for Simplicity: UK-Cheapest.co.uk offers DNS templates to simplify the configuration process. For instance, configuring your domain for Google Apps Gmail is as easy as three clicks. All necessary MX records are added, unnecessary records are removed, and the DNS zone file is reloaded.

5. Starting Fresh If Needed: If managing DNS becomes complex or you're new to DNS management, you can easily reset your DNS Zone to its original defaults. To do this:

  • Navigate to the Domain DNS Manager.
  • Find the DNS Operations list box.
  • Select "Reset to Original Defaults" and press "Apply."

6. Advanced DNS Management for Free: UK-Cheapest.co.uk offers advanced DNS management for free with all registered or transferred domain names. There are no limits to the changes you can make, providing full control where you need it most.

Users can take advantage of these DNS management features to configure their parked domains according to their specific requirements. It's important to note that DNS record changes can take up to 24 hours to fully propagate across the global internet, so instant results in web browsers should not be expected.
