DNS

The system that translates a domain name into the address of the server hosting the website.

DNS works like the internet’s phone book. Correct DNS configuration is needed for the website and business email to work properly. Novi takes care of this as part of the technical launch.

What it means in practice

DNS (Domain Name System) translates a domain name such as yourcompany.pl into the address of the server running the website or email. DNS records define where website traffic goes (A record), where email goes (MX record) and how email senders are verified (SPF, DKIM).

Why it matters for your business

A wrong DNS entry can take your website offline or stop emails arriving. DNS changes spread across the internet in minutes to a few hours, so they need planning.

Examples and good practice

  • When changing hosting, update the A/CNAME records.
  • Set MX records according to your email provider.
  • Add SPF, DKIM and DMARC for email.
  • Note the previous settings before changing anything.

How Novi handles it

Novi handles DNS setup – website, email and email security – as part of the technical launch. You don’t need to know the details.
