Every single domain which is registered and hosted has a great deal of DNS records - some of them are set up automatically when you host a domain, others can be created manually if necessary. As an illustration, the A record of a domain name is its IP address i.e. this record reveals where the website is located; the MX records show where the emails are stored, while using an SRV record you can use a domain address for unconventional purposes, such as a Voice-over-IP service. To be able to create and modify specific records enables you to have different services with different providers if, for example, your current host provides good web hosting, but has difficulties with the e-mail service, or you simply prefer to get a particular service from a particular company. Though you should be able to set up and edit these records freely and with no limitations as you own a given domain, lots of companies charge extra to give you this option.
