Nameservers

Want to redirect a domain in its entirety, without running DNS for it yourself? Point the domain at the redirect.pizza nameservers. We then serve a DNS zone that always points at our edge network, which makes this a good fit for parked domains where everything under the domain should be redirected.

Use with care. When you change the nameservers, every record of the domain is served by redirect.pizza: web, email, subdomains, everything. Any existing records at your old provider stop working. Only do this for domains that have no other use. In most cases, keeping your own nameservers and adding the individual records is the better choice.

Your nameservers

Every team gets its own combination of nameservers. That combination is how we verify that a domain belongs to your team, so always use the pair shown on your Settings page and not someone else's.

Example of a team's nameserver combination

Our nameservers run on the same edge network as your redirects.

Records we serve

For every domain on our nameservers we return the following records. Email is routed to our email forwarding, and the SPF and DMARC records make sure only our mail servers can send on behalf of the domain.

$ORIGIN example.com.
        3600  MX    10 mx1.redirect.pizza.
        3600  MX    20 mx2.redirect.pizza.
        3600  A     89.106.200.1
        3600  AAAA  2a12:5240::1
        3600  CAA   0 issue "letsencrypt.org"
        3600  CAA   0 issue "sectigo.com"
        3600  TXT   "v=spf1 redirect=spf.redirect.pizza"
_dmarc  3600  TXT   "v=DMARC1; p=reject;"
*       3600  A     89.106.200.1
*       3600  AAAA  2a12:5240::1

With a dedicated IP, the A and AAAA records return your own IP addresses instead.
