Recently I had to change the CNAME records for several domains in order to point them to an online venue.
In the past I used eNom but as I moved the majority of my domains to Fabulous.com I wasn’t familiar with their bulk tools.
Fabulous offers a DNS Template feature, that allows you to apply a profile (“template”) against a number of domains.
I created the template, adding CNAME records for “www” and “@” and saved the template with a name of my choice.
To use these features, domains at Fabulous must use the myns1 and myns2 DNS pair. As it’s not a preset profile on Fabulous, I had to create a new nameserver profile, adding those two to it. It took me 1 minute, literally.
The next step was to bulk edit the DNS for the domains, so I pasted my list of domains into the relevant box and applied the new DNS profile to them.
Once this was done, the final step was to apply the DNS template to the domains. In 5 short minutes I was thus able to switch and point my domains in bulk to the venue of my choice.
Fabulous offers many more features, including a security fob that I reviewed in the past. Check it out!
