How to edit the DNS records for my domain name?

KB Team
  • Updated
After each change, you must wait a few hours for the propagation of the new parameters. For more information about DNS propagation, you can refer to this article: What is DNS propagation?

You can add and change the DNS records from your customer area by following the instructions below:

1- Log in using your domain name username and password.

Customers Area : Login


2- Click on "My domain".

Customers Area : My Domain


3- Click on "Zone Edit".

The domain name is automatically appended to the hostname. So, to add the hostname sub.domain.com, enter only sub in the hostname field.

Enter in the "Hostname" field the name of the subdomain, for example "www" will indicate "www.domain.com" and "home" will indicate "home.domain.com". You can use "ftp" to indicate "ftp.domain.com".

To allow visitors to access your website without the "www", leave the field blank or enter "@".

The Hostname field cannot be "@" if "CNAME" is chosen in the "Type" field and neither will it be possible to set the MX record for the "@" hostname.

Here is a description of the available options for the "Type" field:
