Each and every domain that's registered and hosted has lots of DNS records - some of them are set up automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up manually if needed. As an illustration, the A record of a domain name is its IP address i.e. this record reveals where the web site is situated; the MX records show where the e-mails are managed, while with an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, for instance a Voice-over-IP service. The ability to create and modify specific records permits you to have different services with different companies if, for instance, your current host provides stable web hosting, but has problems with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a particular company. Even though you will be able to create and modify these records freely and without any limitations as you own a given domain name, lots of companies charge extra to give you this option.
