Each domain name that's registered and hosted has quite a lot of DNS records - some of them are created automatically when you host a domain, others can be set up manually if needed. As an example, the A record of a domain name is its IP address i.e. this record shows where the website is situated; the MX records reveal where the e-mails are handled, while through an SRV record you can use a domain for unconventional purposes, including a Voice-over-IP service. To be able to set up and modify specific records permits you to have different services with different companies if, for illustration, your current host provides stable web hosting, but has problems with the email service, or you simply prefer to get a specific service from a specific company. Though you must be able to create and modify these records freely and without any limitations as you own a given domain address, many companies charge extra to give you this option.
