Country: | dns failover Anyone know if any registrars offers dns failover? I'm currently using a third party for my more critical websites due to the ability of the service to automatically point my names to another ip address if the primary server goes offline. A lot of registrars have dns servers included with their service, but wondering if anyone knows if any of them offer any failover/ monitoring service included? Thanks!

Country: | I'd second DNS Made Easy, I'm using their Anycast service for all my core websites. Competitive packages. Depending on your gross volume (both revenue per visitor and impressions) you may want to get with a professional to talk about global load balancing for the best cost verse value solution. Sincerely, Justin |

Country: | Scott, We've set this up using DNS in two locations with a little bit of custom code to flip between the primary and secondary, retract the IP's at the downed location etc. If you want to go with your own DNS solution to save costs, let me know and I'll share some code with you. - Richard
