Manage DNS Records in Account Manager

In this guide, we will explain how you can manage the DNS records of your domain name using the DNS editor in your Account Manager.

How to Manage the DNS Records

To add, modify, or delete DNS records in Account Manager, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your Account Manager.
2. Click MANAGE on the Domain Registration of the domain name or on DNS Hosting if you have Premium DNS.

   

   

   NOTE. If you only have the TRANSFER option for Domain Registration, the domain name is not registered with Crazy Domains. Contact your registrar or transfer the domain name to Crazy Domains.

3. Scroll down to the DNS Settings section. 

4. Click the specific DNS record below that you want to manage to be redirected to the guide: 
   • A Record
   • AAAA Record
   • CNAME Record
   • MX Record
   • TXT Record (only available for Premium DNS or domain under UK account)
   • SRV Record (only available for Premium DNS or domain under UK account)
   • CAA Record
5. Ensure the domain name is connected to the following set of name servers appropriately. This makes sure that the internet will read the DNS records you added in your Crazy Domains account manager. 

   IMPORTANT. If you have a working website or email on the same domain name, changing name servers and DNS records will affect their functionality.

   If the domain name is registered through Crazy Domains (without Premium DNS)	ns1.crazydomains.com ns2.crazydomains.com
   If the domain name has Premium DNS	Domains under a UK account must use the default name servers, ns1.crazydomains.com and ns2.crazydomains.com. ns1.dnspackage.com ns2.dnspackage.com

   See our guide on How To Change the Name Servers of My Domain.
