One of our core philosophies at iWantMyName is openness. For example, we we don't force you to use our nameservers and DNS hosting services for your domain names. It might even make perfect sense to seperate domain registration and DNS hosting in some cases. That's why you can always update the nameservers of your registered domains in real-time through your online dashboard to host it somewhere else.

There are many free DNS hosting services out there and depending on the level of service or amount of domains (some of them offer paid account upgrades) they might already be sufficient for your needs. Some of the most popular ones are:

• ZoneEdit.com (5 domains free)
• EveryDNS.net (from OpenDNS founder David Ulevitch)
• editDNS.net (free for up to 5 domains)
  
• XName.org (non-commercial)
  
• FreeDNS (unlimited domains, 20 subdomains)
• Zerigo (also integrates with Heroku)

Having total DNS control has been one of the most requested features of our power users. DNS is not only the underlying technology for our Domains for Apps but also probably the most overlooked cloud service. Hence we are pleased now to offer a low-level DNS editor which gives you full control over your domains and lets you manage DNS records completely in real-time.

The new DNS editor supports A, CNAME, MX, AAAA, TXT & SRV records. Have a look at this shiny new tool:
