DynDNS was originally founded to provide quality dynamic DNS services to the Internet and we continue to offer our free Dynamic DNS. In addition, we offer other services that might be of interest to a home user.

DynDNS is a focused and savvy DNS provider, specializing in dynamic DNS and complementary services. DynDNS is a private, internally funded and stable company.

We have no investors looking over our shoulders nor do we worry about our stock value. We run an efficient and profitable organization and pass these savings on to our customers. We are technologists that develop high quality services and our goal is to be the value provider of DNS services.

The free Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname in any of the many domains we offer, allowing your computer to be more easily accessed from various locations on the Internet. We provide this service, for up to five (5) hostnames, free to the Internet community.

The Dynamic DNS service is ideal for a home website, file server, or just to keep a pointer back to your home PC so you can access those important documents while you're at work.

Using one of the available third-party update clients you can keep your hostname always pointing to your IP address, no matter how often your ISP changes it. No more fumbling to find that piece of paper where you wrote down your IP address, or e-mailing all your friends every time it changes. Just tell them to visit yourname.dyndns.org instead!

Here are some key features of "DynDNS":
Hostnames in 68 domains
Wildcarding, allowing *.yourhost.dyndns.org to point to yourhost.dyndns.org
Offline URL redirection
MX records, allowing for flexible e-mail configurations
Clients for a wide variety of platforms
An open, non-proprietary update interface

Free, industry leading e-mail support
5 DNS servers in 4 redundant tier-1 datacenters around the globe
