Only CNAME is perfectly fine, except if you want the site work without the
www-prefix like someone already pointed out. Of course there must be A record
for that name where the cname points to somewhere, but I read the question that
this is not your concern.

Aihe: Dumb Question is an A or AAAA record required?
Given a domain that is hosted and used for email and web, is an A record for
that domain actually required?
That is, if bob.tld is hosted by example.com can you simply have
NS ns1.example.com
NS ns2.example.com
MX mx.example.com
www CNAME www.example.com
Without specifying
A 11.22.33.444
(I am pretty sure this is *technically* allowed, but is it really OK to do or
are there reasons not to do this?)
