I don't think it matters what DNS service to use. You can change your NS records from every service and that's pretty much all you have to do in there. Not every web host has this but for example digitalocean.com which is more like a cloud and my personal favorite you can add as many RRS records you want. "A" record is the common one. It redirects the client to your IPv4 address you can also choose if you want to use subdomain for example "www". If you want ssl you may need CAA records also.

Hi Musaddiq I think RRS are only required if you are hosting your own DNS servers. Most people nowadays would go to a provider and use Dynamic DNS, and have it routed back to your web-server. Of course if your web server is also hosted then the provider can organise a sub DNS for you. I use Duck DNS for my local at home webserver. Easy to setup, and you just need the public static IP for your router/egress point. The service is free. https://www.duckdns.org/
