Website Terminology Glossary
A Record
A DNS A record, also known as an “Address” record, is a type of DNS (Domain Name System) record that maps a hostname to its corresponding IPv4 address.
When a user enters a domain name into their browser, the browser sends a request to a DNS server to resolve the domain name into an IP address that can be used to locate the website’s server. The DNS server looks up the A record for the domain name in its database and returns the associated IP address to the user’s browser, allowing the browser to establish a connection with the server.
For example, if the A record for the domain name “example.com” is set to the IP address “192.0.2.1”, any requests made to “example.com” will be directed to the server with the IP address “192.0.2.1”.
A DNS A record is essential for the proper functioning of a website or any online service, as it is used to connect a domain name to its associated IP address, enabling users to access the website or service.

I have never worked with a website company that was able to deliver results so quickly. Great customer service and response times on any website issue I've ever needed help with!
Yoni was on point from our very first meeting through the completion of his work on my website. His quick responses and thoroughness were both very much appreciated. I look forward to working with Yoni again the next time an update or addition to my website is needed.
Yoni helped me refine my SEO in numerous ways. He was pleasant to work with, thorough, and promptly available by phone and email to answer my questions. Furthermore, he was patient and professional when it came to the back and forth of getting things looking exactly as I wanted on my website. He did things for me on my website that others I had worked with were unable to do. His knowledge of web development and SEO is a powerful combination. Other people I had worked with in the past did one or the other, but he does both!
