Then we\u2019ll move to the differences between them. Let\u2019s get started!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Does the CNAME Record Work?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike the A record, the DNS <\/span><b>CNAME record <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">maps a domain name to another domain name. In most cases, a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/easydmarc.com\/tools\/cname-lookup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CNAME record<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is used instead of a DNS A record, as it can only point to a domain name.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the case of an A record, its purpose is to associate a domain or URL with its corresponding IP address.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, to load <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mywebsite.com<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you need to point to its IP address like 192.168.10.1. However, this doesn\u2019t include an alias domain like <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.mywebsite.com.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So if a user types <em>www.mywebsite.com<\/em> into their browser, the CNAME record tells servers that www.mywebsite.com should lead to the same page as <em>mywebsite.com<\/em>, which can be confirmed with a <a href=\"https:\/\/easydmarc.com\/tools\/cname-record-checker\">CNAME record lookup<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, CNAME records establish a connection between a parent domain and subdomains. If you have subdomains like <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blog.mywebsite.com<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mail.mywebsite.com<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you need CNAME records to link them to their parent domain, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mywebsite.com<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Does an A Record Work?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The DNS A record or Address record is one of the vital <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/easydmarc.com\/blog\/top-8-most-common-types-of-dns-records\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">types of DNS records<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, specifying a particular domain&#8217;s IP address.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, if you pull the DNS A record of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mywebsite.com<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you should get the responding IP address in this format, 192.168.10.1. Every domain must have an A record, which plays a vital role in IP address lookup.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b>A record <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in the <\/span><b>DNS<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> points a domain name to an IPv4 address. With this record, a user on the internet can connect and load your webpage without remembering the IP address. For instance, you can type the domain name <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EasyDMARC<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> into your URL search bar, and the <\/span><b>DNS A record <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pulls up the IP address.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What\u2019s the Difference Between CNAME vs. A Records?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CNAME and A records are often confused with each other, but there are differences. First, an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/easydmarc.com\/tools\/a-record-lookup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A record<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can only connect the primary parent domain to the corresponding IP address. On the other hand, CNAME records link the parent domain to its alias or subdomains.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, CNAME records can point to other CNAME records or A records but A records can only point to the IP address of a domain. Moreover, a parent domain can only have an A record, not a CNAME record.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Summary<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This <\/span><b>CNAME vs. A record<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> guide explains the differences between CNAME and A records. Both records are vital configurations you need to include in your domain settings. Even if you run a single-page website, you still need a CNAME record to connect the \u201cwww\u201d to the main domain page.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Domain Name System or DNS connects our &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":32631,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[204,306,205],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29343","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-dns-records","category-knowledge-base"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>CNAME vs. A Record | EasyDMARC<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"CNAME and A records can be confusing if you don\u2019t get them right.
