"The DNS hosting service typically thrown in for free by domain registrars is not very good. For most sites, solid DNS hosting costs about $USD 50 per year. It's worth the effort. Heck, set up with two different services for failover."
Can anyone recommend a company that provides solid DNS hosting? Are there measurable performance benefits? Thanks!
- smhinsey 17y agoThere can definitely be benefits to the very important first visit to a site, particularly if you have a lot of subdomains (images, static, movies, whatever) that need to be resolved. The faster they resolve the faster the site will seem. Unfortunately I can't make any recommendations.
- aristus 17y agoI could not put it in the article, but for my personal projects I use worldwidedns.net and mtgsy.com. I've also used DNSPark.net but their admin interface is nasty.

- daydream 17y agoWhen I looked into this a few years ago dyndns.com was a good affordable service.
- jpeterson 17y agoWell I can't speak for all domain registrar DNS services, but I've had nothing but great experiences with the free DNS service at Namecheap. It's a nice interface, very configurable, and the updates are fast.
