What is DNS?
DNS (Domain Name System), at its most basic, is how domain names get translated to the IP address of a web server around the globe. DNS is crucial to having your domain name actually display a website when accessed via a browser, or for you to receive an email at your domain’s email address.
In order for your domain name to work, you need to assign it to some DNS hosts, also known as nameservers. Many others will charge you to use their DNS hosting services, but never at Porkbun! We offer premium class DNS management using the industry’s best DNS provider, Cloudflare, including access to powerful tools like bulk management, DNSSEC, and API access.
Premium DNS Management, Without the Premium Price
Easy to Manage
We make it easy to manage all types of DNS records both per domain as well as in bulk. You can add notes to each line for future reference, or copy the records from one of your other domains for fast setup.
Quick Setup
Our Quick DNS Config allows you to get your domain connected to the most popular services in one (okay, sometimes two) clicks of a button, including Google Workspace, Office 365, SquareSpace, Shopify, and more.
Safe and Secure
Activate DNSSEC, a secure DNS signing protocol, with a click of a button. This will prevent man-in-the-middle attacks and DNS hijacking, protecting your visitors and adding trust to your website.
API Access
You can enable API access for any of your domains for free, allowing you to setup Dynamic DNS (DDNS) and other services to control your domain’s DNS records and more.
Support for multiple DNS record types
With Porkbun’s DNS management, you can set a variety of record types including common ones for email and web hosting, as well as for extra services or authentication. Every domain can have up to 200 records at a time.
We provide support for the following record types:
- A - Address record
- MX - Mail exchange record
- CNAME - Canonical name record
- ALIAS - CNAME flattening record
