Greetings. I have come across a common issue that I would like to address. As an avid reader and also someone who has experienced this problem firsthand, I will share my insights and possible solutions.

Let's say you have an English website and you want to broaden your audience by targeting Spanish-speaking users. This leads to the challenge of creating a Spanish version of the website, especially if the database is filled with a variety of data beyond just two or three pages.

To tackle this problem, there are three options available:

1. Creating a subdomain for the site
2. Installing a plugin that can simulate the website in another language
3. Creating a subdirectory for the site

It's important to note that if you do not have access to the CMS, then your only option is to create a subdomain through the site's control panel. Any additional suggestions or corrections are welcome.

Another issue that can arise pertains to the DNS configuration. It is important to confirm that the forwards are set up correctly and that your DNS server has knowledge about provider services.

Additionally, it is important to identify which DNS server is registered in the network adapter configuration of the domain controller. If the DNS is the controller itself, then it should be directed towards its own IP.

it may also be beneficial to regularly monitor your DNS server's performance and check for any potential vulnerabilities. By maintaining a secure and efficient DNS configuration, you can help prevent any negative impacts on your website's accessibility and functionality.
