Every domain name which is registered and hosted has a great deal of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up manually if needed. As an illustration, the A record of a domain address is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the website is located; the MX records reveal where the emails are handled, while through an SRV record you can use a domain address for unconventional purposes, such as a Voice-over-IP service. Being able to set up and modify specific records enables you to have different services with different providers if, for instance, your present host provides good web hosting, but has problems with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a certain service from a particular company. Though you can create and edit these records freely and without any limits as you own a given domain address, some companies charge extra to give you this option.
