What this service covers

A domain can use one provider for registration, another for hosting, and another for email. I inventory the existing DNS zone and required services before changing A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SPF, DKIM, or DMARC records.

The agreed setup can include website publishing, TLS, www redirects, business email routing, provider verification records, and a planned nameserver or hosting change. Existing email and third-party services are preserved only when their records and account access are available for review.

Domains, hosting, mailboxes, certificates, and provider subscriptions remain client-owned and separately billed. DNS propagation is distributed and cannot be made instant. Email deliverability also depends on sender reputation, content, provider policy, and correct ongoing use.

Frequently asked questions

Can my domain and hosting be with different providers?

Yes. I point the required web, email, and verification records to the correct providers and test the resulting website, mail routing, and TLS behavior.

Can you set up business email?

Yes, for one agreed email provider and the required MX, SPF, DKIM, and verification records. Mailbox subscriptions, migration, and deliverability remediation are separate unless listed.

Will changing hosting take my site offline?

Preparing the new host first and scheduling DNS changes reduces risk. DNS propagation and provider behavior mean short inconsistencies can still occur.
