A record
Points the domain at an IPv4 address. Visitors reach your site through that address.
The free DNS order has no setup fee. Your domain records are published on KuzeyDC infrastructure in Istanbul.
What is the free DNS service?
Publishing the records that tell the internet where your domain should go, from KuzeyDC.
What does the DNS service do?
DNS turns a domain name into a server address. The free DNS service publishes that translation for you: the web address, mail server and verification records live in the same zone.
The service is for domains you host, or plan to host, at KuzeyDC. Records are answered from the Istanbul datacenter. You create, change and remove the zone from the client panel.
After you update a record, visitors see the new address according to the TTL on that record. A new domain starts answering after the nameserver change at the registrar is complete.
How to start
- Order. Open the free DNS order with Get It Now and enter the domain you will use.
- Nameservers. After the order, the nameserver addresses appear in your client panel. Update those addresses at your registrar.
- Records. Add and change A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV and CAA records from the client panel.
Who uses it?
- Web and apps: A and AAAA records decide which server your site and API names point to.
- Email: The server that receives mail is set in the MX record. Checks such as SPF are published as TXT.
- Verification: Domain ownership, certificate authority and service location are shown with TXT, CAA and SRV records.
What this service is not
- Public resolver: It is not the recursive DNS that computers use for every lookup. It answers only your own domain.
- Server rental: Creating an A record does not include hosting. Cloud, dedicated or colocation is chosen separately for web or mail.
- Not a registrar panel: The nameserver change is made at the domain registrar. KuzeyDC publishes the zone and the records you manage in the panel.
