The Private DNS are name servers that reflect your domain name rather than our default ones. The service is available to all our clients on all our hosting plans.
The default nameservers for your account have the following structure:
| 1 2 | ns1.servername.tld ns2.servername.tld |
Using a Private DNS you can have name servers that look like this:
| 1 2 | ns1.yourdomainname.com ns2.yourdomainname.com |
Having private nameservers could be useful if you intend to resell hosting services or want to brand your business. Also, when using Private DNS, if a domain name is migrated to another server, there is no need to change any nameservers and the domain names will automatically point to the new location.
The Private DNS extra feature is available to all joomla site customers and can be activated as follows:
- Resellers can order private DNS from their Reseller Area index page -> Get Private DNS button.
- Shared, Cloud hosting and Dedicated server users can order private DNS from their User\'s areas -> Add Services -> Private DNS.
NB: If you are ordering the private DNS upgrade with an existing domain name of yours, note that the setup of the service requires your existing domain name to be managed by joomla site at the time of the purchase.
