DNS you don’t have to be afraid of.

Managed DNS means someone else owns the correctness of your zone. We hold the current record set for your domain, plan every change against what already depends on it, make the change, and verify the result. You get a named contact for DNS instead of a control panel you open twice a year and hope you remember.

Usually not. DNS management can often be delivered without changing registrar, as long as the current account gives us the access we need. If the existing setup makes that impractical we will tell you why, and what moving would involve, before anything changes. See domains and DNS.

Propagation typically completes within hours, and often much faster when the record’s TTL has been lowered in advance. It is not instant everywhere at once, because resolvers around the world hold cached copies for different lengths of time. We verify each change once it is live rather than assuming it worked.

Yes. Clients get their own DNS management area in the client portal at portal.tkwebhosts.com, so you can look at your records or edit them whenever you want. Self-serve when you want it, done-for-you when you don’t — and you are never locked out of your own zone.

No. DNS is a separate layer from where your site or mail is actually hosted, and we routinely manage records that point at other people’s infrastructure. Your website, mailboxes, and third-party tools can each live wherever they live — the zone just has to point at them correctly.

That is exactly what the process is designed to avoid. Existing mail routing and authentication records are recorded and validated before anything is edited, mail-affecting changes are sequenced deliberately, and we verify delivery after the change rather than waiting for someone to report a bounce.

Yes — email authentication is our specialty, not a side effect. We publish a single valid SPF record covering every service that legitimately sends as you, add DKIM keys for each sending platform, and set a DMARC policy that matches how you actually send rather than a copied default.

An orphaned record points at something that no longer exists — an old server, a cancelled tool, a subdomain from a project that ended. At best it is clutter. At worst it sends traffic or mail somewhere you no longer control, or contributes to an SPF record that quietly stops working. We find them and remove them deliberately, with a record of what was removed.

Yes. Agencies and multi-brand businesses are a common fit — several zones, different hosting and mail arrangements behind each, and one place to ask. Each zone keeps its own documented record set so nobody has to reverse-engineer a client’s setup during an incident.

We hold the pre-change state, so reverting is a known operation rather than a reconstruction. Because we make the change we also own the diagnosis, which is the practical difference between one fix and a conference call between three vendors.

Yes. You get written confirmation of what was changed, why, and what to watch. If you ever replace us, your next provider inherits documentation instead of archaeology.
