If your domain is controlled by the SiteGround platform, you can manage the DNS records with a straightforward process. Are you configuring your new website or setting up email services? It’s beneficial if you learn the accurate adjustments to your DNS records.
Steps to Manage the DNS Zone on the SiteGround Platform
- Using your login credentials, enter the SiteGround account
- Navigate to the Services and access the Domains option.
- Carefully select the domain to work on and press the Manage option.
- You will enter the space where you can open the DNS Zone Editor.
The interface of the editor allows you to easily add, view, change, or delete any DND records that are related to your domain.
Below are DNS Record Types You Have Control Over
- A Record: It conducts accurate mapping of your domain or subdomain with a chosen IP address.
- MX Record: Governs the email delivery destination systematically.
- TXT Record: These are typically applied during domain authentication and safeguarding email accounts (Such as DKIM and SPF).
- CNAME Record: Using it, you can easily link one domain to another.
- NS Record: Highlights the name servers managing your domain.
Important Note
It’s worth remembering that the changes you make in the DNS settings should be carried out with care. Any mistake while performing such activities can lead to a hurdle in the functioning of your website or email operations. If you face any confusion while submitting the values, it’s advisable to contact SiteGround’s support team.
If you’ve purchased a domain from SiteGround but happily hosted your website on MilesWeb’s platform, you must link your domain’s DNS records to MilesWeb’s servers. To access accurate DNS values and other details, you can check them in your MilesWeb hosting panel.
