DNS hosting is needed to make sure that users can access websites, email, and other services on the Internet. DNS hosting connects domain names to IP addresses, so your users can get the services they need. It is also possible to add other ownership information and preferences to the domain name using the DNS.
SlickAlpha DNS hosting is faster, more reliable, and capable of handling high-traffic loads more efficiently and effectively. Our DNS is easy to customize and supports custom domains and subdomains, as well as other advanced features.
Using SlickAlpha DNS, you can easily import public DNS records from the web, and make automated entries for your mailspace subscriptions.
Domain verification helps us make sure that you own the domain name. Domain verification also helps verify that your DNS configuration is correct and that the DNS records resolve correctly.
SlickAlpha DNS is a free DNS hosting solution that allows you to host and manage your domain's DNS records. You can read our documentation on setting up SlickAlpha DNS, to learn more about how to configure your domain.
Presently, we support all widely used record types such as A, AAAA, CNAME, TXT, MX and SRV. We are working to support additional DNS record types.
When you add a domain name to your SlickAlpha account with SlickAlpha DNS turned on, our systems look up your public DNS records online.
To effectively use DNS imports, check for missing records after you import your DNS records, and then change your nameservers on your domain registrar's website, after importing your existing DNS records.
Business email accounts, also known as domain email, are custom email accounts that are hosted using your domain name. For instance, the email address john@johnswinery.com would be a business email address. Business reputation is influenced by the resulting branding potential.
Users are individual email accounts with unique email addresses using your domain name. In certain contexts, email accounts are referred to as Mailboxes.
Aliases are forwarding addresses using your domain name. Aliases cannot send email and do not consume storage resources.
Businesses typically require two email setups, one for receiving and responding to official emails, and another for marketing and sending newsletters.
We offer a business email solution that can be used solely for official communications. Our service should not be used for "bulk"/marketing emails or be confused with "anonymous" email services.
Email base is the base subscription that connects your domain to our cloud. Email base plans include several free users. You can add more users using email add-ons.
Our business email solution comes with effective spam protections. Our anti-spam systems are highly accurate when it comes to detecting spam and junk emails. This means you can be sure that your inbox will remain free of any unwanted and potentially malicious emails.
To ensure that our network is available to all our patrons, we use sending limits and spam filters to filter out outgoing emails. However, our sending limits are rarely exceeded on everyday usage, which is tied to efficient usage rather than strict limits.
