Making and restoring a backup of your DNS
In your domain's DNS management you can make a backup of the complete DNS zone with a single button. Before you change anything in your DNS, make a backup first: you can then always return to the working situation and experiment safely with your settings.
Making a DNS backup
- Log in to My WebOké.
- Go to My Domains and choose your domain.
- Open the DNS tab.
- Click the button to make a backup. The complete zone, meaning all records at that moment, is saved.
Restoring a backup
- Open the same DNS screen of your domain.
- Choose the backup you want to restore and confirm.
- Your DNS records are back to how they were at the time of the backup.
Good to know
- Make it a habit to create a backup before every larger change, for example when you move your website or change email records. It takes one click and can save you a lot of troubleshooting.
- After restoring, due to DNS caching it may take a while before everyone on the internet sees the old situation again.
