// the obvious question

“Why is it free?”

Because DNS is part of the internet’s plumbing — it shouldn’t cost money to point a domain at a server. We already run authoritative DNS for our hosting customers; opening it up to everyone else costs us almost nothing extra and makes the network we run more useful.

There’s no premium tier, no “upgrade for advanced records”, no surprise bill if your domain gets popular. If you outgrow free DNS, you’ve outgrown DNS itself.

// what you get

Every feature, at no charge.

No artificial limits. No “Pro” tier. No upsell.

DNS slaves worldwide

We run DNS slaves all around the world — your domain answers fast no matter where the query comes from.

DNSSEC

Sign your zones with DNSSEC in one click. Keys rotated automatically.

IPv4 & IPv6

Dual-stack on every nameserver. AAAA, A, MX, TXT, SRV, CAA — all the records you need.

Low TTL friendly

Run TTLs as low as 30 seconds for fast failover. We don’t penalise you for it.

Web UI & API

Manage zones in the web panel or automate with a clean REST API and dynamic DNS endpoints.

Secondary & primary

Use us as primary, or as secondary to a master you control via AXFR/IXFR.

No query limits

No artificial query caps. No sudden “you’re too popular” bills.

TSIG & ACLs

Authenticated transfers with TSIG keys and per-zone access control.

// record types

Every record type that matters.

From the basics like A and MX to the specialised stuff like TLSA, SSHFP, and CAA — you can publish whatever your domain needs to publish.

A AAAA CAA CNAME DNSKEY DS MX NS PTR SOA SRV SSHFP TLSA TXT

Plus DNSSEC signing (DNSKEY, DS, RRSIG, NSEC3) handled automatically when you enable it on a zone.

// the only plan

There is no premium tier.
