Managing DNS completely separately is fine, too. I just don't think it's a particularly good idea to use your registrar as your DNS provider unless you're also using it for hosting. I'd much rather point my registrar at my host's DNS than to have to update DNS records every time something changes on the host.
- Nick_C 15y ago> have to update DNS records every time something changes on the host. On the other hand, you might want to be able to do that rather than not be able to. I'm thinking of the situation where your host goes down. If it is host-wide, your (their) DNS servers might be down too. I intentionally use a different company for DNS than hosting, so if the host goes down I can point my DNS to somewhere else.
