Unusually clear presentation, very helpful. Thanks Tony!
Really great stuff, man. Thank you.
A very clear and concise explanation. Thank you.
Great vid! Very concise and easy to understand.
THIS is exactly what I was looking for! Your explanation about why it's better to use an A record instead of a CNAME is what I was trying to figure out for the last day, since I've read and watched a bunch of tutorials suggesting one method or the other, but never explaining the differences or that you could do either one. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching :)

Tony PLEEAASE! Where did you get that bombay canteen???
Finally I understand what does CNAME DNS record mean. Thank You Tony!
Sure thing Szabó
This is great, thank you. Question, If I move my site files to a different host server but keep my emails hosted on a different server, Can I just update the A records IP to the new server hosting the files? I do not want it to impact where my emails are currently hosted. I thought this was correct until I saw this video. I was told changing the CNAME in this case would not work.
Hi Tony, I recently transferred my domain that I purchased from NameCheap to Google. (Thanks to your helpful video) However, now I don't know what to do with my DNS. (This is all a new language to me) Now that the transfer is complete I tried to create a webpage in google, but it says, "Can’t connect, domain in use"- and also my domain is "already managed by another service provider. To continue, enter a different subdomain. To use this subdomain, disconnect it and try again." So now I am searching for videos on what to do next, but cant seem to find the answers. Do you happen to have a tutorial on this issue?
Hi Tony, we want to have the root domain for the normal website and a api. subdomain for the endpoint, but if I use cname it rooting me back to the root domain. How can we configure this for a school project?
bro your intro almost gave me an epileptic shock... geez
I feel like ive just listened to a video in chinese. Im so not an I.T person haha but im glad we have some people who are good at this stuff.
Thanks
How would you set up A record or Alias record for a sub domain?
Great video Tony! I had a seizure watching the intro, watching this from the hospital! Very helpful!
Haha!!! You're welcome Zack
Can you change the change or delete the cname using the command nsupdate on a rhel8 server?
quick question Tony.. I recently linked my custom domain to my github pages repo and set my DNS records with CNAME only and I have been waiting for DNS check to complete for 2 days now. Is it okay to only use the CNAME record without the A on my DNS records?
nice job
Thanks!
You helped me a lot,
My blog is having more than .5M traffic pr month.
Only coz i got best hosting nd speed for my customers.
Thanks brother ❤️🔥
That's awesome! Keep it up Jitendra
If a web platform asked me to use ns1.sitename.com and ns2.sitename.com , for custom domain name , I just use NS record for 2 times inside Cloudflare?
Hi Tony! I'm currently creating a new website for a client who has previously had everything on wordpress. The website has a few subdomains and the client wants to keep those as one of them is for their shop. I'm designing a new website with WIX and was wondering if if i change the cname and A name records for the main domain, will it affect any of the subdomains that they have?
Thanks!
Depends on what the values of those A and CNAME records are. If it helps, there will be a record (A or CNAME) for the subdomain, so as long as you don't touch that (or the corresponding A) then you should be okay
I bought the name on google and they need the cname, for gmail, but the cname is nowhere to be found. Im so confused
if want to understand this in detail what courses should i take
La triple T, que copado
how we redirect root domain to another root domain?
Hello ~ I am so confused about NS and CNAME as both of them are point to A record. May I know their differences, application and location stored in , such as TLD or authoritative ?
A name server (NS) tells you where the resources records are located such as CNAME, A, etc
I'm a designer. Can you explain what this means to me as a designer.
Hi found your video very useful content
Can you do a video on how to point website to one server and email to another server
Not specifically, but this would just involve making sure that the DNS records point to the correct IP addresses
Can you make a video talking about DANE (DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities)????
Something I'll add to my list
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is the IP address from the device, or website, or where exactly? My brain is not quite understanding where that number is found… 😢
Every device connected to the internet has an IP address... your phone, computer, etc. In the case of this video, the IP address is that of the server that hosts the website. Hope that clarifies!
@@TonyTeachesTech thank you, I finally figured it out 😀
