Domain Name System (DNS) records are instructions that tell the internet where to find your website. A DNS record links easy-to-read domain names (like your site's web address) to information that your computer can read (like your site's unique IP address).
You might need to update DNS records if you change your website host or set up new email accounts.
Add, edit or delete your domain's DNS records from the Domains section of your Wix account. You can manage all of the records for your domain, including A records, CNAME records, TXT records, and more.
Important:
If your domain is connected to Wix via pointing, you must manage your DNS records with your domain host (not Wix).
