Godaddy Domain Manager

The GoDaddy (finally) integrated Afternic into the Domain Manager

Betas allow domain owners to enumerate and administer domain entries from within the GoDaddy Domain Manager. And GoDaddy has incorporated the AVTernic naming and administration processes into its domain manager. It' s been a long while, but GoDaddy has at last incorporated the AVT directory into the GoDaddy.com domain manager, more than four years after the registration company purchased AVT.

NamesCon will provide domain developers who collect the domain rating system's signature key with easy entry to the new integrated domain manager. In order to start the process of integrating, each user enters their own login information to consolidate their own accounts in GoDaddy. All domain prices and listings will then be made from the GoDaddy website.

That means that GoDaddy Premium Listings is on its way out. Since GoDaddy took over in 2013, Premium Listings has been somewhat duplicated. With GoDaddy's 60-day locking system and no full incorporation of Afterernic, however, premium listings remained as gap fillers. An old way to list domain names on GoDaddy's website listed on GoDaddy's website, was there: Afternic:

Sign up and get on after-nic. Domain names that have transfered property to GoDaddy are blocked for 60 day, so that the AVT is not yet going to go online. Lists on premium listings so that the domain is activated during the 60-day domain windows. GoDaddy will send you an e-mail after 60 working days asking you to choose a quick one.

Sign up and get listed on GoDaddy. Immediately on GoDaddy and after 60 day domain names are offered for purchase in the entire AfternicDLS-system. For domain holders there is an added advantage. A lot of people have asked for countries that are only for sales, and Alfternic now has them. As part of the registration procedure, clients can select whether the domain is to be forwarded to an Afterernic country with a request for quotation and the telephone number of Afterernic.

In the Domain field, enter your domain, select "Master" for the domain and click Next.

In the Domain field, select your domain, select "Master" for the domain and click Next. Just set everything to Standard except SOA, just fill in your e-mail adress, click Store, and then log in to Godaddy. In the Domain Manager area on the far right, click on the Domain Manager, then on the page, select the domain and click on the domain. Click on Nameserver, then a css popup will appear, select User Defined Nameserver. Then just hang on.

Insert A Entries and an MX Entry. Please notice that we have a completely empty slot in the DNA manager. On the A/AAAA tab, click on " New A/AAAA entry". Here we create the dataset that says that "snarfexample.com" is 1.2.3.3.4. Enter nothing other than "IP address" for the first A entry, the one for the primary domain.

Repetition the procedure for creating A Entries for all desired sub-domains. Here I have created a sub- domain "mail" (note that I only used "mail" and not "mail.snarfexample.com"). For external machines to be able to recognize email that mail.snarfexample.com processes email that comes in for @snarfexample.com email address, we also need an MX entry.

Once you have finished creating an A-entry for email, click Join MX-entry. Here we use the full host name (since the host processing the email for joe@snarfexample.com does not necessarily have to be part of the domain). Enter the full host name of your email sub-domain. I' ve added more datasets here, with an IPv6 copy of the Mail and IPv4/IPv6 datasets for "wap", with the same precise procedures as in the 2 above.

I' ve also added an SPF entry under TXT entries - this allows some mail servers to detect the SPF to ensure that their domain is not spammed. Insert A Entries and an MX Entry.

Provide all your changes (since you just switched GoDaddy's name servers) about 24 hrs to distribute over the web, and everything should work well. Do I have another query, if possible, what do I need to set up in Godaddy's DNA Manager?

Is it possible to copy these options to the godaddy manager? I just have to set up the name server in Godaddy, right?
