Domain Management

In the fast-paced world of web development, reliable domain management is the foundation of every successful online presence. At Tiger12, we specialize in streamlining this critical process, handling everything from DNS configuration to renewals and full domain lifecycle control. By exclusively partnering with Amazon Route 53, we deliver unmatched reliability, scalability, and performance that keeps your websites running smoothly without interruptions.

Why Route 53: The Gold Standard in Domain Management

Amazon Route 53 stands out as the premier DNS service, and our commitment to using it exclusively ensures our clients benefit from enterprise-grade infrastructure built on AWS's global network. Unlike traditional DNS providers, Route 53 offers low-latency global propagation thanks to its anycast routing technology, which directs queries to the nearest edge location across AWS's 200+ points of presence worldwide. This means faster load times, reduced downtime, and a superior user experience for your audience, no matter where they are.

Key advantages of Route 53 that power our domain management services include:

• Exceptional Uptime and Reliability: Route 53 boasts a 100% SLA for DNS query resolution, far surpassing industry standards. Health checks automatically reroute traffic from unhealthy endpoints, providing built-in failover and disaster recovery without manual intervention.
• Scalability Without Limits: Designed for massive scale, it handles millions of queries per second effortlessly. Whether you're launching a small site or managing a global enterprise application, Route 53 grows with your needs.
• Advanced Traffic Management: Features like latency-based routing, geolocation routing, and weighted routing allow us to optimize traffic flow precisely. For instance, we can direct European users to the closest servers while routing North American traffic differently, minimizing latency and improving SEO rankings.
• Seamless AWS Integration: As an AWS-native service, Route 53 integrates natively with EC2, S3, CloudFront, Elastic Load Balancing, and more. This eliminates compatibility issues and enables automated deployments through Infrastructure as Code tools like AWS CloudFormation or Terraform.
• Cost Efficiency: Pay only for what you use with no minimum fees, and benefit from competitive pricing on domain registrations and transfers. Bulk discounts and reserved instances further reduce costs for high-volume clients.

By leveraging these strengths, we eliminate common pain points like slow DNS propagation, frequent outages, and vendor lock-in associated with fragmented providers.

Comprehensive DNS Record Management

We take full ownership of your DNS infrastructure, managing all DNS records with precision and expertise. From A, AAAA, CNAME, and MX records to more advanced TXT, SRV, and CAA entries, our team configures and maintains them to support every aspect of your digital operations.

Our DNS services include:

• Custom Zone Configurations: Private hosted zones for VPCs, public zones for internet-facing domains, and hybrid setups for complex environments.
• Automated Health Monitoring: Continuous monitoring with Route 53 health checks ensures proactive issue resolution. If a server goes down, traffic shifts instantly to backups.
• Security-First Practices: We implement DNSSEC signing for domain validation, protecting against spoofing and cache poisoning. Coupled with Route 53's built-in DDoS protection via AWS Shield, your domains stay secure.
• Alias Records for Simplicity: Route 53's proprietary alias records simplify pointing domains to AWS resources like ELB or S3 buckets, avoiding the need for cumbersome CNAME chains.

This hands-on management means you never worry about misconfigurations causing 404 errors, email delivery failures, or SSL certificate issues.

Effortless Domain Renewals and Lifecycle Control

Domain expiration shouldn't disrupt your business. We handle automatic renewals through Route 53's robust registrar services, supporting over 30 TLDs including .com, .net, .io, .app, and country-code options. Our proactive approach includes:

• Auto-Renewal Setup: Domains renew seamlessly 30-45 days before expiration, with customizable notifications.
• Transfer Expertise: Smooth inbound and outbound transfers with WHOIS privacy included at no extra cost.
• Portfolio Oversight: Centralized dashboard for viewing expiration dates, renewal status, and billing across all your domains.

We also provide domain locking, registrant updates, and compliance checks to keep your assets protected and transferable.

Beyond Basics: Advanced Features for Full Control

Our domain management extends to innovative features that give you a competitive edge:

• Traffic Policies and Routing Rules: Fine-tune global traffic with reusable policies for A/B testing, blue-green deployments, and multi-region failover.
• Resolver Services: Route 53 Resolver for hybrid cloud setups, enabling secure DNS resolution between on-premises networks and AWS.
• Integration with CI/CD Pipelines: Automate DNS updates via API calls during deployments, ensuring zero-downtime rollouts.
• Analytics and Insights: Query logs and traffic flow visualizations help us optimize performance and troubleshoot proactively.

For e-commerce sites, we configure multi-value answer routing to distribute load across origins, while high-traffic apps benefit from failover routing with secondary endpoints.
