How do I modify my A Record?


The A Record, also known as the ‘Address Record’, is the most important part of the DNS record.  It links your domain name to the correct IP address for your web and mail services.

You can modify your A Records through your Domain Control Panel.

To change your A Record:

  1. Log into your Domain Control Panel
  2. Click ‘DNS Management’
  3. Change the IP addresses for the existing A records
  4. Click ‘Update DNS’
  5. The A Records will be changed

The DNS changes will take up to 24 hours to propagate across the Internet.

You can also create new A Records in the Domain Control Panel.
