copied!<p>Here is my recommendation regarding DNS.</p> <p><strong>Less than 10 Domains/Simple Usage: Use Registrar's DNS</strong></p> <p>If you are hosting less than 10 domains and they are all your domains, use your provider's DNS service. That just makes things easier for you.</p> <p><strong>Over 10 Domains, Reselling, Frequent Changes: Use Server's DNS</strong></p> <p>If you are hosting more than 10 domains, add domains frequently, or re-selling hosting services, then you will need your own nameservers. There are several steps here. First you must configure cPanel to be used as a nameserver, then list these nameservers/hosts at your registrar, and finally, setup your domain to use the nameservers you selected.</p> <p><strong>Use DNS Provider</strong></p> <p>There are benefits to using a 3rd party DNS provider such as UltraDNS, DNS Made Easy or similar providers. These providers often have a global reach with their networks. This improves DNS propagation, speeds up DNS lookups, and reduces DNS outages. If you run a site that makes you money, consider these services. Despite having the know how and more than a 150 servers, we still outsource our DNS.</p> <p>References:</p> <p>cPanel Docs</p> <p><a href="http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/11_30/WHMDocs/BasicSetup#Nameservers" rel="nofollow">http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/11_30/WHMDocs/BasicSetup#Nameservers</a></p> <p>Flash Tutorial</p> <p><a href="http://www.rackaid.com/flash/whm11-setup-voice/whm-setup-17-nameservers.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.rackaid.com/flash/whm11-setup-voice/whm-setup-17-nameservers.html</a></p> <p>Flash Tutorial</p> <p><a href="http://www.rackaid.com/flash/whm11-services-voice/whm-services-22-dnszones.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.rackaid.com/flash/whm11-services-voice/whm-services-22-dnszones.html</a></p>
