DNS Management
While SitePack automates your primary settings, you may occasionally need to view or modify your DNS (Domain Name System) records.
Accessing DNS Settings
In your SitePack Admin, navigate to Settings > Domains and click on the specific domain you wish to manage.
Note: SitePack exclusively manages the DNS for all domains registered on our platform. We do not support external DNS providers.
Automated Security Records
To ensure high deliverability and security for your website and email, SitePack automatically manages:
- SSL/TLS Certificates: Encrypts your website traffic and secures your mail connections. We handle both the issuance and the automatic renewal.
- SPF (Sender Policy Framework): Validates which mail servers are allowed to send email for your domain.
- DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail): Adds a digital signature to your emails to prevent spoofing.
Common Records Explained
- A Record: Points your domain to an IP address (your website's "home").
- MX Record: Directs email to the SitePack mail servers.
- CNAME: Creates aliases (e.g.,
www.yourdomain.com).
Expert Tip
If you are unsure about a specific record, it is best to leave the default SitePack settings in place to ensure your site and mail continue to work correctly.
