What the Zone Editor Is For
The DNS zone editor is where you control how your domain behaves on the internet: which server hosts your website, where your email is delivered, and which third-party services may act on behalf of your domain. If your domain uses Tech Guru Club nameservers, you can edit all records from the client portal at app.techguru.co.in without touching your hosting control panel.
Record Types You Will Use
- A record: points a name such as yourdomain.in to an IPv4 address of a server.
- AAAA record: the same, but for IPv6 addresses.
- CNAME record: makes one name an alias of another, commonly www pointing to the root domain, or a subdomain pointing to a SaaS platform.
- MX record: tells the world which mail server receives email for your domain. Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Zoho and Rediffmail Pro each publish their own MX values.
- TXT record: free-form text used for SPF, DKIM and DMARC email authentication and for ownership verification by services like Google Search Console.
- SRV record: service discovery entries needed by some collaboration tools.
Editing Records Step by Step
- Log in to the portal and open the domain.
- Choose the DNS management or zone editor option.
- Add, edit or delete records. Enter the host, type, value and TTL, then save.
- Wait for propagation. A TTL of 3600 means caches may hold the old value for up to one hour.
Practical Tips
Lower the TTL to 300 a day before a planned migration so changes take effect quickly, then raise it again afterwards. Never delete MX or SPF records while email is in use. Keep a screenshot or export of the zone before making major changes, so you can restore it if something breaks. Our support team can review your zone any time you are unsure.
