How to Manage DNS Records in Webuzo

DNS records are the signposts that tell the internet where to find your website, your email and other services. If your server runs its own DNS, Webuzo lets you view and edit these records without leaving the panel.

A quick word first: DNS is powerful, and a wrong entry can take a site or email offline. Change one record at a time, and keep a note of the original value.

Where to find DNS in Webuzo

1. Log in to your Webuzo Enduser Panel.
2. Open the Domains section and click DNS (or DNS Manager / Zone Editor).
3. Select the domain whose records you want to edit.

The records you will use most

• A record — points a domain or subdomain to an IPv4 address (your server’s IP).
• CNAME record — points one name to another name, often used for www or third-party services.
• MX record — directs your email to the correct mail server.
• TXT record — holds verification and email-authentication values like SPF, DKIM and DMARC.

To add or edit a record, choose the type, enter the name and value, set a sensible TTL (3600 seconds is fine), then save.

After you make a change

DNS changes are not always instant. Give them time to spread across the internet — our guide on DNS propagation explains why this can take anywhere from minutes to a few hours.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I manage DNS if my domain uses external nameservers?

If your nameservers are at your registrar or Cloudflare, edit DNS there instead of in Webuzo. Webuzo only controls DNS for domains that use your server’s nameservers.

How do I set up email records like SPF and DKIM?

Add them as TXT records here. Correct email records greatly improve deliverability — a topic we cover in our email guides.

I changed a record and my site went down. What now?

Restore the original value you noted. If you did not note it, open a ticket and we will help recover the correct settings.
