A Record

'A' Records, or 'Address Records' are the most common type of DNS record. They are used to point a host name (or root domain name) to an IP Address.

Typically, this IP address is that of a server that provides web hosting or other services for the site.

Note that the server to which you point your site must be configured with web server or other software to accept connections from users.
