Good Free Dns Hosting Service

Recommended Posts

Except the free web space and the free email, free dns hosting is rarely discussed. When you have a domain, you can share it to multiple hosts if you have a domain name server (dns). If you don't have, it's ok. The DNS hosting server can serve you as you own it. Another benefit of the dns hosting is that you can update it anytime and anywhere. Building up a dns is not easy, but using a dns hosting isn't. Of course, if the a dns hosting is free, it is wonderful.What kinds of services would a free dns hosting provides? The management of basic DNS hosting functionalites of A name (subdomain to an IP), C name (subdomain to a domain), MX record(email server) is necessary. Moreover, other services will be optional, like mail forwarding, domain parking, url forwarding or ddns (dynamic dns).The following is some free DNS hosting I've ever found. dnspark.com provides the following free services: DNS Hosting Mail Guiding (mail forwarding) web camping (domain parking) web guiding (url forwarding or url framing; short url) Dynamic DNS limitation: 2 domain hosting only, and 200,000 dns query per month.ZoneEdit.com provides the following free services: DNS Hosting mail forwarding domain parking web forwarding (url forwarding or url framing; short url) Dynamic DNS limitation: 5 domain hosting only, and 1,000,000 dns query per year.Mydomain.com (my favorit) provides the following free services: DNS Hosting mail forwarding domain parking web forwarding (url forwarding or url framing; short url) limitation: no limitation PS. The DNS hosting of mydomain.com can assign dns server of the subdomain.You can be a domain from a domain register. But a lot of domain register just provids very simple domain managemant, comprising A name, MX record or simple url forwarding. That is, you can't tough the subdomain. Better registers provide dns hosting as dnspark.com or zoneedit.com without limitation. The mydomain.com is a amazing one, you can consider it as a full function execpt the DDNS. You can create one or more subdomain, and also make the dns hosting of the subdomains. With mydomain.com, you can share the subdomain to your friends. Of course, they can update the subdomain you shared on their own as long as they host the subdomain on a dns hosting.

There is another interesting thing. I bought a ".to" domain and chosen the DNSpark.com for DNS hosting. I was very satified about their service. It seems everything goes fine.The DNSpark.com has a tool to show your queries every day. I noticed it at the third day. After executing the too, it showed 7000(1st day), 12000(2nd day), and 11000(3rd day), and it showed I had used 15% of my usage.Wow...My domain is so popular! Even I did not start to use it, it got so many queries. I was a newbie, and so excited. But suddenly I found something was wrong. About 10000 queries arrived every day. It means it costs me 5% usage everyday. That is, I will run out all my usage in 20 days, and the rest days of the month I will get a silent domain.I am so surprised. What's the matter with it? No one could give me a answer. After I created a catch-all email account to forward my used e-mail. Another things surprised me, too. My email account received over 50 email in 10 minutes. That's why, spam e-mail causes the problem. What could I do for it? Nothing, I just accepted it sadly.Then another search for the next home of my domain started. The Zoneedit.com is found by. The situation did not change, but my domain could work, at least a longer while. Because it affords 1,000,000 queries, but in one year. I can use it for 3 monthes.The third search for my domain started again. Finally, the mydomain.com is discoveried by me. No one knows how much efforts I spent. But it is not important, finally I can settle down my domain on a good dns hosting. Oh! DDNS is not supported by mydomain.com. It won't cause any problem. All I need is create a subdomain and host my it on dnspark.com or zoneedit. That is, dreams come true.

i bet that most of those queries are search bots and yeah the email is going to slaughter your account up good i would pay the 5-10 bucks a month just to have a good reliable host but since i don't it at this time i can't recommend who to go to just search around.
