What does DNS mean?

The Domain Name Server/System (DNS) is a system for obtaining information about domain zones and IP addresses where websites are hosted. Simply put, DNS records must be specified so that your domain name is able to indicate on which server your website is hosted and where it needs to go in order to open this exact website on the Internet.

What DNS records can I manage at Site.pro?

• NS - Name server record
• A - Address record
• CNAME - Canonical name record
• MX - Mail exchange record
• TXT - Text record

In order to change DNS records of a domain purchased on Site.pro system:

1. Open My Websites;
2. Find your domain in the "Unlinked domains" list and click on the icon next to it. If you can't find it, unlink your domain from a website;
3. Change the DNS settings of the domain: DNS zone (CNAME, A, TXT, etc.);
4. Save changes.

Note: Subdomains (e.g., website.site.pro) do not have a separate DNS Zone. This means that DNS changes cannot be applied on subdomains.

1. Open My Websites;
2. Click on next to the domain and select "Mail servers";
3. Select the mail service you're using or select "Custom settings" to add a custom MX record;
4. Click "Save";
5. Go to your mail service and create mailboxes.

According to GDPR policy, information about domain name owners is hidden by default for both individuals and companies.

Exceptions may apply in regards to national domain zones of some countries. Please submit a ticket to our Customer Support team for more information about hiding information about the domain owner for these specific zones.

Since January 2014, ICANN, the organization that sets the rules for registering domain names, has introduced new rules for generic top-level domains (TLD) (e.g., .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, etc.).
According to these rules, registered domain requires verification of contact information.
Verification is carried out in two possible ways:

• Upon initial registration of a domain name;
• When changing contact information in a domain, such as the name of the owner of the domain, name of the organization, registration email.

In both cases, an email will be sent to your email address specified during domain registration with a request to confirm the email (during the initial registration of the domain), or the validity of the changed contact information (when changing the name of the domain owner, name of organization or registration email).

1. You need to get an Authorization (Auth) code from your current domain/hosting provider;
   (This code may also be called an "EPP code" or "transfer key/code" or "secret key/code". You may find this code in your current provider’s settings, or you can request a code from your current provider. Sometimes, it may take a day or two to get this code, so we recommend requesting it right away. Make sure that your domain is unlocked from transferring by asking your current domain provider about it).
2. Go to My Websites;
3. Click "Add domain" link;
4. Choose the "Connect your domain" option;
5. Insert your domain and press the "Add" button;
   (While transferring, keep in mind, if the domain's expiration date is coming to an end, our system can ask you to pay a little extra for its renewal).
6. Create a ticket and inform Site.pro support team about the taken steps and provide a domain authorization code.
