BitFolk customers who would like us to provide secondary DNS service for you should follow the instructions on this page.
Servers
We currently have DNS servers in the following locations:
- London, UK
- San Francisco, CA, US
- Lexington, KY, US

The hosts in London and San Francisco are fully controlled by BitFolk; the others are part of a DNS collective.
Setup
Serve the domain yourself
Firstly you will need to add your domain(s) to an authoritative DNS server under your control. This can be running on your VPS or anywhere else. Once you have done this, please contact support with:
- The IP addresses of your servers
- The names of your domains
Once you have confirmed it is all working, you may add the nameservers mentioned at the end of this document to your zone and DNS registrar.
Add DNS servers to your parent domain
Do this step last, after you have confirmed all is working! Note that ns0.sfo.bitfolk.com will not take a zone transfer until it is listed as an NS record in your domain.
You probably should contact your domain registrar to alter the DNS servers in the parent domain. You can add the following:
- ns0.lon.bitfolk.com
- ns0.sfo.bitfolk.com
- sou.nameserver.net
- phl.nameserver.net
- sjc.nameserver.net
