CNAME Records in Web Hosting
If you have a web hosting plan through our company and you would like to set up a CNAME record, it will take you only a few mouse clicks to get it done. You can access the DNS records for all domains and subdomains hosted in your account via the Hepsia Control Panel offered with every single plan and adding a new record is as simple as clicking on a button, selecting the type, which is CNAME in this case, inputting the actual record value and saving the modification. If you've never added this kind of record before, you will find a Help section with a detailed video tutorial that you can watch, or you can just contact us and we will assist you with this task. If you have set up a website via another company, you want to use a private URL for your webmail or you want to designate a subdomain for use with the services of a different provider, for example Google Apps, all it takes is creating a CNAME record with a couple of clicks inside your Control Panel.
CNAME Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
Managing DNS records usually seems a challenging task to people with less experience, but the Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with each and every Linux semi-dedicated server which we offer, is very simple to use. If you wish to create a CNAME record for any purpose, all you will need to do will be to choose the domain or subdomain you need, pick the type of record, that will be CNAME in this case, then input the value i.e. the domain address or subdomain you are forwarding to. The process is quite simple and you can set up the record in the DNS Records section of the CP. Within the hour the new record is going to be 100 % active and within a few hours it is going to propagate worldwide. If you're not sure what you should do, we've prepared a detailed help article and a short video tutorial regarding how to go about creating a CNAME record and they are both located within that very same section of Hepsia. Naturally, you can also get in touch with us for assistance at any moment.
