Hosted's New Client Portal Integrates DNS, Email, Redirects, And Security Settings Into A Single, Comprehensive Dashboard, Simplifying Domain Name Management

(MENAFN- GetNews) Hosted's free domain management control panel is designed to simplify domain name management for customers. It offers access to a comprehensive range of tools. This includes DNS record editing, email setup, subdomain creation, domain redirects, DNSSEC security, and auto-renewals, all accessible through the Client Portal or via the cPanel dashboard.

More businesses, startups, and freelancers are looking for intuitive platforms to manage the different aspects of their domains without needing a technical background or an in-house IT team. Hosted's control panel is designed for those who want more direct control, but without the steep learning curve often associated with advanced software and command-line code.

The platform places a strong emphasis on usability from registering a .com domain name to managing multiple subdomains and email accounts. Important settings, such as expired SSL certificates or misconfigured DNS records, are shown automatically, along with options to fix them without requiring instant customer support.

For example, when setting up email, the system recommends corresponding DNS records and prompts for verification. When creating a redirect, customers are shown recommendations to prevent duplicate content or broken links.

Client Portal Features

The client dashboard provides a consolidated overview of domains along with essential management tools and features, including:

Addon Domains

Clients can manage multiple domain names under one account. This is particularly useful for businesses operating separate websites with different TLDs like .com , .co, or .us, or landing pages for marketing campaigns. The feature supports a quick setup with separate folder assignments and configurations, reducing time spent managing individual web hosting accounts.

Subdomain Management

The panel enables the creation and organization of subdomains, such as domainname” or domainname”. These can be assigned to different directories on the hosting server, allowing online businesses to expand site functionality without needing to register additional domains.

Email Setup and Management

Email addresses using the registered domain can be created and controlled directly from the dashboard. Hosted's tools support inbox creation, password changes, and quota management, making it easier to use multiple branded email addresses for professional communication.

Domain Redirects

Built-in redirect tools assists users in forwarding traffic from one domain or URL path to another. This is particularly helpful during rebrands or when consolidating web properties. Redirects can be configured as either permanent (301), or temporary (302), allowing for SEO-friendly changes without potential broken links.

Real-Time DNS Record Editing

The DNS section enables users to update records, including A, CNAME, and MX. These settings control how web traffic and emails are routed, as well as which services (such as email or web hosting) respond to domain queries. Changes take effect in real-time, and the panel displays an update status to help track propagation.

Auto-Renewal Configuration

A key feature for domain owners is the ability to activate Domain Auto-renewal. Hosted displays expiration dates prominently and enables automatic renewal with stored payment methods, helping customers avoid service interruptions or unintentional domain loss.

DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions)

DNSSEC protects users from certain types of cyberattacks by authenticating DNS responses. Enabling DNSSEC within the dashboard ensures that the information directing visitors to a site is verified and tamper-proof, adding an important layer of trust and data security for online visitors.

"Domain management should not require a background in web development," said Wayne Diamond, CEO of Hosted. "We've built this dashboard with ease of use in mind. Whether our clients want to edit DNS records or setup new emails for their business, the tools are straightforward and integrated into a single, beginner-friendly platform."

Domain Lock

Domain Lock is a security feature that prevents unauthorized, accidental, or malicious domain transfers. When activated, it puts a registry-level lock on the domain, making sure transfer requests require clear approval. This extra level of protection helps ensure continuous ownership and lowers the risk of hijacking or misuse.

The Hosted control panel supports industry-standard protocols and integrations. Email clients that use POP3 or IMAP protocols are supported, allowing seamless integration with desktop software like Outlook or mobile apps. Security protocols ensure data transmission over HTTPS, and Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is available for account protection.

Users with more technical needs, such as configuring DNSSEC or setting up advanced MX records, will find the panel's editor more than enough for advanced configurations.

The Hosted domain management control panel is available to all customers with domains registered through the platform . No downloads or installations are required; the system is fully browser-based and compatible with all major web browsers.
