# Introducing HexName
|
||||
HexName is a DNS and subdomain registration service designed to be simple, limit-free, and genuinely useful. We focus on providing aspiring homelabbers and others with a reliable domain infrastructure - with more freedom than anyone on the market.
|
||||
|
||||
At its core, HexName enables users to register and manage subdomains under a curated set of parent domains, and configure extensive DNS records for operating real services such as servers, websites, and email - all from a simple platform.
|
||||
|
||||
While you might have seen our <a target="_blank" href="/about">About Us</a> page and noticed a certain pattern, we do not compromise on the quality of our service. Our priorities will always be providing a useful product with a high uptime.
|
||||
|
||||
## What HexName Offers
|
||||
|
||||
### Subdomain Registration
|
||||
Each user can register up to **20 subdomains**, chosen from the following parent domains:
|
||||
- `hexname.com`
|
||||
- `loves-beer.com`
|
||||
- `dickdns.org`
|
||||
|
||||
These subdomains are fully functional and intended for production use.
|
||||
|
||||
### DNS Management
|
||||
HexName allows up to **200 DNS records per subdomain**, supporting the following record types:
|
||||
- **A**
|
||||
- **AAAA**
|
||||
- **CNAME**
|
||||
- **TXT**
|
||||
- **MX**
|
||||
- **NS**
|
||||
- **SRV**
|
||||
|
||||
This makes HexName suitable for a wide range of use-cases, including:
|
||||
- Hosting websites and blogs
|
||||
- Running game servers
|
||||
- Configuring custom mailservers
|
||||
- Service discovery and infrastructure routing
|
||||
|
||||
Users retain fine-grained control over their DNS configuration, enabling setups that go beyond basic domain forwarding.
|
||||
|
||||
### Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
|
||||
HexName also provides a **Dynamic DNS service** for A records.
|
||||
|
||||
This allows users with changing IP addresses, such as those on residential or non-static connections to automatically update their DNS records at regular intervals. The service is ideal for remote-access situations, or exposing self-hosted services to the public. With DDNS enabled, a HexName subdomain remains a stable access point even as the underlying IP address changes.
