DNS Administration
What is DNS administration?
DNS administration refers to the management and configuration of a Domain Name System (DNS) server. DNS is a critical internet infrastructure that translates domain names (such as example.com) into IP addresses (such as 93.184.216.34) that computers use to communicate with each other.
DNS administration involves tasks such as configuring DNS zones, adding or removing DNS records, managing DNS servers, and troubleshooting DNS-related issues. DNS administrators may work with a variety of DNS server software, such as BIND, Microsoft DNS Server, or Cloudflare DNS.
DNS administration is important for ensuring that websites and other online services are accessible to users and that they can be found easily on the internet. It requires knowledge of DNS concepts, network protocols, and server administration.
Is it important to keep DNS updated regularly?
Yes, it is important to keep DNS updated regularly to ensure the proper functioning of your website and other online services. DNS records can change due to various reasons, such as changes in hosting providers, domain name transfers, changes in IP addresses, or updates to domain settings. If DNS records are not updated in a timely manner, it can cause issues such as website downtime, email delivery failures, or problems with accessing online services.
Regular updates to DNS records can also help improve website performance, security, and reliability. For example, updating DNS records with correct SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) settings can help prevent email spam and phishing attacks.
Similarly, updating DNS records with correct SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificates can help improve website security and prevent data breaches.
Therefore, it is important to regularly review and update DNS records to ensure that they are accurate and up-to-date, and to avoid potential issues that can affect the availability and security of your online services.
Is there a charge for DNS administration & maintenance?
Yes, we charge a reasonable £12 per year fee (i.e. £1pm) per domain for DNS administration & maintenance. This covers all of the above as well as adhoc changes that clients themselves require to their DNS records. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us in this regard.
