Hello all,
I'm looking for some recommendations on managed DNS services. I'm currently using BIND which came with WHM panel but find this inadequate for my goals in the future. I would like to replace this 'single server does all' solution with a more redundant multiple location DNS solution. This would allow for additional webservers that would all rely on an off network Nameserver/DNS and hopefully more responsive DNS since its off network. Additionally, this gives me the advantage of strategically located geo-locations for DNS, or at least thats what I think and I guess it would all be based on the vendor providing the DNS services. Any feedback on this of course is welcome. I would like to hear how some of the others are handling this type of scenario.
I have come across one promising service provider, World Wide DNS, but would like feedback from anyone who has used this company or is familiar with this company - http://www.worldwidedns.net/
The price is right at World Wide DNS, no charge for bandwidth (at least none that I saw), just a flat yearly fee for a set number of zones. This is basically what I want to spend on a cost per domain hosted basis (nuttin' but love for my clients), so if the recommendations could please stay in this price range of .20¢ to .30¢/per client per month . I have seen very expensive solutions that are just beyond my reach at this time, so keep those recommendations on the lower side please.
In a nut shell,
- I want to offer redundant offsite DNS for my clients
- What is the best way for me to manage this through WHM
- And what are the names of some good low cost providers?
Additional solutions or advice is welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Bill
