Request for Access to Your Domain Settings

To help you launch your account successfully, we need to access your your domain settings (specifically the DNS and Name servers settings)

A strong online presence is crucial for business growth. We specialise in helping businesses like yours build and expand their online presence, allowing you to stay competitive and reach a wider audience.

To achieve this, we need access to your domain settings to make necessary configurations on the backend of your domain. Granting us access allows us to manage your domains without you having to hand out passwords or other sensitive information.

By granting us access to your domain and allowing us to update your domain's settings, we can accomplish the following improvements for your business:

  • Enhance webpage speed, improve performance and reliability, and bolster your website's resilience against cyber attacks.

  • Direct your domain to any lead generation and sales funnels or set up a subdomain if your main domain is already pointed to an existing website.

  • Configure an email sending subdomain for email marketing purposes. This practice safeguards your main domain for transactional emails, which is a standard procedure in email marketing to ensure proper setup.

  • Establish a solid technical foundation for email marketing basics by configuring a few records. These records inform email providers of your legitimacy, thereby improving the deliverability of your marketing emails, bulk email campaigns, and email newsletters.

  • Set up essential redirect rules for both the www and non-www versions of your domains.

To achieve all of the above, we will:

If you have already purchased a domain, it may have been done through one of the following registrars:

GoDaddy
Domain.com
Namecheap
Google Domains
Dreamhost

CloudFlare

Alternatively, if someone else built your website, they may have set up the domain for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens once I grant you access to my domain settings?

Once you give us permission to edit your domain settings, we will create a free Cloudflare account for you. We will then give you all the information you need to access this account.

Next, we will update your domain's name servers with the Cloudflare name servers. This will make it easier to manage your DNS records and will also improve the performance and security of your website against cyber attacks.

Don't worry, you will still own your domain. It will stay with your current domain registrar. The only thing that will change is where your DNS records are managed, which will be in your new Cloudflare account that you will have full access to.

Why Cloudflare?

Cloudflare is a company that helps make websites safer, faster, and more reliable. They have many servers all over the world that work together to do this.

Cloudflare functions as both a content delivery network (CDN) and a DNS Server

A CDN is a network of servers that helps distribute content from a main server to different parts of the world. This makes it faster for people to access your website because the content is stored closer to them.

A DNS server changes domain names into IP addresses, allowing people to access websites using easy-to-remember domain names instead of complicated IP addresses. DNS servers direct internet traffic and allow storing of various DNS records.

DNS records, also known as zone files, are like special instructions stored in authoritative DNS servers. They provide important information about a website, such as its IP address and how to handle requests for that website. Think of it as a phone book for the internet!

After working with numerous clients, we have found (in addition to all of the performance and cybersecurity benefits), that the most efficient way to manage DNS records and benefit from CDN is through Cloudflare.

Benefits of Cloudflare

When someone visits a website, Cloudflare acts as a middleman between the website and the visitor. This helps the website load faster and protects it from cyber attacks.

It also saves money by spreading the website's content to different parts of the world. This makes it easier for people to access the website quickly, which can improve how long they stay on the website and any important actions they take, like signing up or making a purchase.

DNS servers with domain registrar vs DNS on Cloudflare

When you have a website, managing DNS (Domain Name System) is essential. There are two options: using your domain registrar's DNS servers or opting for a different company like Cloudflare. Let's compare the two:

Using DNS Servers with Domain Registrar:

  • Convenient as you can manage both your domain and DNS settings in one place.

- However, DNS management features and flexibility may vary depending on the company.

- Most domain registrars charge monthly fees to access and edit all DNS records.

- Managing DNS settings separately for each domain registered with different companies can be challenging.

Using DNS on Cloudflare:

  • Cloudflare is a popular company offering DNS services.

  • They have a global network of DNS servers, enhancing website speed and reliability.

  • Extra security features provided by Cloudflare protect your website from attacks.

  • Cloudflare improves website performance through content caching and delivery.

  • Managing DNS settings for multiple websites is easy with Cloudflare's centralised platform.

  • Cloudflare offers free DNS management on their base plan.

    In summary, if basic DNS functionality suffices, using your domain registrar's DNS servers is a simple option. However, for advanced features, improved performance, and added security, Cloudflare is much more advantageous, which is why we recommend it for all of our clients.

Are there any fees with Cloudflare?

We will create a free Cloudflare account for you so there are no ongoing fees. The free account includes essential security features to protect your website from cyber attacks and improve its speed, performance, and reliability.

Our fee to set this up is already part of the done for you account setup fee. If you've not opted in for our 'done for you account setup' please get in touch.

You will only need to pay fees if you choose to upgrade your plan with Cloudflare. Once we know the volume your site traffic, we will recommend the best plan to meet your business needs). Typically if you have/ plan to have a website that will have e-commerce capability (any online purchases), we would recommend you the Cloudflare's the Pro or Business plan.

Difference between Domain Registrar, DNS, CDN and Website server

A domain registrar helps people and businesses register and buy domain names for their websites. They work with the organization that keeps track of registered domain names. Registrars offer services like searching for available domain names, registering them, renewing them, and managing them. Most common domain registrars are GoDaddy, Domain.com, Namecheap, GoogleDomains, Dreamhost, CrazyDomains but the most convenient and cost effective one is Cloudflare as it also offers domain registrations.

A DNS server changes domain names into IP addresses, allowing people to access websites using easy-to-remember domain names instead of complicated IP addresses. DNS servers direct internet traffic. Most Domain Registrar's function as DNS servers as well

A CDN, like Cloudflare, is a network of servers spread out globally. CDNs store static files, such as images, CSS, and JavaScript, on these servers to deliver website content quickly. CDNs improve website performance, load times, and provide security features against cyber threats. Cloudflare is a popular CDN provider.

A website server hosts websites and provides web content to users. It stores files, databases, and other necessary components. When someone visits a website, their browser sends a request to the server, which processes the request and sends back the desired web pages. Website servers can be physical machines or virtual servers in data centers. They handle website traffic, manage user requests, and provide web content.
