Easy Connect DNS is a feature of our <a href="https://www.webnames.ca/dns/dns-hosting" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Advanced and Premium DNS Hosting </a>services.

Easy Connect allows for the quick connection of many popular services to your domain name. Easy Connect works by prompting for required values and then automatically creating the necessary DNS records to connect to the service. Easy Connect then inserts those records into your DNS configuration, which is found lower on this page. All your domain's DNS records can be reviewed and edited before being applied and set live.
