Any active domain name that is added in a hosting account has a variety of records that permit it to perform properly. In the common case, the name servers (NS records) show the location where the domain name is hosted and they're set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are specific records set through the hosting company like A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e-mail server), SRV (employing a domain address for non-website purposes on a particular port number such as Voice-over-IP), and so on. With access to these records and by having the ability to modify them, you could have your web site with company A and your emails with company B, for illustration. This offers you more freedom since you can select the best provider for every single one of these services and you do not have to stick to one company. After you select a hosting company, you have to make certain that you can access all DNS records freely as some providers have an additional fee for this function.
