APEX Domains¶

Your domain apex is the second (or third, depending on the TLD) level domain that is provided by your domain registrar. This is the domain that has your NS and SOA records set to.

For example, these are apex domains:

  • ukfast.co.uk

  • ukfast.com

  • ukfast.io

  • ukfast.me.uk

These are not apex domains:

  • images.ukfast.co.uk

  • www.ukfast.co.uk

  • webmail.ukfast.com
