Where to get DNS?
Hello,
i have domain for which i can register nameservers in my domain registar (namecheap) control panel, i am unsure how good DNS namecheap offers?
Do you suggest any other provider?
so i can then point my domains to that nameservers to resolve to my hosting server ip:
nsMyName1.dnsservice.com -> myhostingserverip
nsMyName2.dnsservice.com -> myhostingserverip
i got idea trying cloudflare free service too. my budget is very low, i need something free or very low priced. very low number of dns requests. Like maybe 1-3 unique visitors per second.
What do you suggest? Thank you

1-3 per second isn't low at all.
Go with Cloudflare if you like it.
CloudFlare - unlimited domains, unlimited DNS entries per domain, 2 DNS servers (anycast DNS!), CDN with many features (can be disabled if not necessary so can serve easily as DNS only), DNSSEC, no query limit
Hurricane Electric DNS - 50 domains, unlimited DNS entries per domain, 5 DNS servers, no DNSSEC , can act as master and slave DNS, no query limit
1984 - unlimited domains, unlimited DNS entries per domain, 4 DNS servers, DNSSEC (beta), can act as master and slave DNS, no query limit
All three are free and have their advantages/disadvantages. I use 1984.
Go with CloudFlare. If you want to be cool run your own.

If not f@cked up about GeoDNS
Namecheap's DNS is also pretty nice. It even has dynamic DNS.
They need a better 2FA setup - I'd prefer a hardware key setup - but otherwise yeah, roll your own atomic dns or whatever.
well, there's your answer
CloudFlare is a good choice that you're running. Keep it up.
Their (namecheap) DNS seems to me really good, however cloudflare is much faster
my bad
Use our free DNS hosting https://app.dnsmanager.cc/login
Ooh. Nice reminder.
Good to know, considering that dediserve will have to kick me out, before I stop paying them.
AnyCAST No Limits -> Queries per Day: 1,000,000
Eh?
Any questions let me know?
I made a recent thread with the same question, it has a lot of suggestions in it.

Oh, great thread, thanks
