Our DNS Manager, included with your domain registration, allows you to use your domain without a hosting plan. You can set up DNS records, email forwarding, URL redirection, and Dynamic DNS within the DNS Manager.

 

Special Note 1: If you have an existing hosting plan with the domain, we do not recommend using the DNS Manager, as it will not automatically pick up any new settings made on the hosting server. Therefore, it is recommended that you use the hosting plan's nameservers.

Special Note 2: In order for the settings in the DNS Manager to function, your domain's nameservers must be set to the DNS Manager's nameservers. You can switch it in the Domain Overview page of the Domain Manager. However, as mentioned in Special Note 1, do not do this if you have an existing hosting plan and you are using the hosting plan's nameservers.
