A DNS hosting service is an Internet hosting service that runs Domain Name System (DNS) servers.
Description
Most, but not all, domain name registrars include DNS hosting service with registration. Free DNS hosting services also exist.
Many third-party DNS hosting services provide Dynamic DNS.
DNS hosting service is optimal when the provider has multiple servers in various geographic locations that provide resilience and minimize latency for clients around the world. By operating DNS nodes closer to end users, DNS queries travel a much shorter distance, resulting in faster Web address resolution speed.
DNS can also be self-hosted by running DNS software on generic Internet hosting services.
