Every domain name which is registered and hosted has lots of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up by hand if needed. As an illustration, the A record of a domain name is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the web site is situated; the MX records reveal where the e-mails are handled, while through an SRV record you can use a domain name for unconventional purposes, such as a Voice-over-IP service. To be able to create and modify particular records allows you to have different services with different companies if, for example, your current host provides dependable web hosting, but has issues with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a certain service from a certain company. Even though you must be able to create and edit these records freely and without any limits as you own a given domain address, lots of companies charge extra to give you this option.
