How do I manage the DNS records for my domain?

How do I manage the DNS records for my domain?

To add or manage the DNS records for your domain:

  1. Log in to your Zoho Domains account and navigate to the "My Domains" page.
  2. To begin managing the DNS records for a specific domain, navigate to My Domains and click Manage next to the domain you wish to configure.
  3. On the domain management page, click Manage DNS. This will take you to the DNS management interface, where you can configure your domain's DNS settings.
  4. Once on the DNS page, click Manage Records to start editing the DNS records associated with your domain.

  1. If the domain was recently purchased, you will be presented with an empty form to add your DNS records.
  1. Under the Hostname field, enter the subdomain or host name (e.g., "www").
  2. Under the Type'dropdown, select the appropriate record type (e.g., A, CNAME, MX, etc.).
  3. Enter the corresponding value for the selected record type in the Value field (e.g., an IP address, target domain name, etc.).
  4. Once all values are added, you can click Save.

  1. To add additional DNS records, click Add Record. If the record type supports multiple values (e.g., A records), you can add further values by selecting Add More Value beneath the record entry and entering the additional information.

  1. If you have recently transferred your domain to My Company and wish to retain your previous DNS configurations, you can upload your existing DNS settings by importing a zone file. To do so:
  1. Click Import DNS Zone File.
  2. You can download the DNS zone file from your previous domain registrar and upload it here to import all relevant records automatically.



Notes

Important Consideration: Please note that the DNS records will only become effective if your domain is pointed to our default nameservers. If you are using custom nameservers, the records will not be applied. Ensure that your domain is set to use our nameservers for the changes to take effect.
