Manage DNS records for your domain
Use the DNS included with your domain to point it to a VPS, dedicated server, or external service, and edit A, CNAME, MX, and TXT records.
Manage your domains in the client area
Renew a domain, change its nameservers, turn auto-renew on or off, get the EPP code and edit contacts from the CR Servers client area.
Point your .cr domain to CR Servers
Connect a NIC-registered .cr domain to CR Servers hosting, email, or VPS using nameservers or A/CNAME records.
Register a .cr domain at dominios.cr
Register Costa Rica domains at dominios.cr as titular and point nameservers to CR Servers when you host with us.
Add secondary and pointer domains
Add another domain on this hosting plan as a secondary site with its own document root, or as a pointer that shares an existing site.
Create and manage subdomains
Add a subdomain such as blog.example.com, find its folder inside the main site's html folder, and delete it when you no longer need it.
Preview your site with temporary domain access
Preview a shared hosting site on the server before you change DNS or nameservers.
Verify your domain contact email (WHOIS)
If the website and email stopped but hosting looks fine, the registrar may have suspended the domain until you verify the WHOIS contact email.
