How to set up and use your DNS Manager
In order to set up your DNS manager, you will need to update your Nameservers and create a DNS zone through the client area.Note: Our DNS managers are only available for domains that are registered through us. If you'd like to use our DNS manager you can transfer your domain to us, or use an external DNS manager like CloudFlare.
Create DNS Manager
Step 1 - Log into your Client Area and select Domains.
Step 2 - Select the domain in question and click on the Options icon, then Manage Nameservers.
Step 3 - Select DNS Manager Nameservers, then select Change.
Step 4 - Select Domains then Manage DNS on the left menu.
Step 5 - Select Add New Zone for the domain in question.
Step 6 - Add your server's IP address. You would generally be given this as part of a Product Welcome Email. Select Add Zone once done.
Note: If you are only using this DNS manager for email hosting or don't know your server IP, enter 127.0.0.1. You will be able to modify the records later.
You will then get a message notifying you that the Zone has been created.
Adding and Editing records
