How DNS Works with Real Geeks

When your domain is set up with Real Geeks, their team manages the DNS settings for your website.

Real Geeks can handle all types of DNS records, including:

  • TXT records (used for things like email verification)

  • MX records (used for email setup)

  • CNAME records (used to connect services)

  • A records (used to point your domain to your website)
