If you want to use Cloudflare, Quic.cloud, or any third party for DNS hosting, you need to create/modify the following DNS records on your DNS control panel.
We use separate DNS Clusters to host DNS for Shared, Semi Dedicated, and Reseller Hosting. If you only want redundancy, we recommend using our nameservers and hosting the DNS with us. When we manage your DNS, it helps us better troubleshoot should there be any issues with your DNS.
