Uptime, security, and reach
Uptime target
Premium DNS is provisioned on a redundant anycast footprint. If we miss the published uptime target for a billed month, support applies credit on the next invoice.
Worldwide coverage
Queries are answered from the nearest healthy node so resolution stays fast under load.
DNSSEC support
Zone signing when the extension supports DNSSEC, so resolvers can detect tampered answers.
High query capacity
Sized for busy sites. Exact monthly query allowance is confirmed when support provisions the zone.
Worth it for business
Keep visitor trust
DNSSEC reduces the chance of forged answers sending people to a fake site.
Secure look-ups
Anycast and redundant nodes keep answers available when a single site would struggle.
Resist DNS floods
Traffic is spread across nodes so a local flood is less likely to take the whole zone offline.
ALIAS where supported
When the platform allows it, apex-friendly ALIAS records avoid CNAME limits on the root.
One clear yearly price
$4.99 for the first year, then $9.99 on renewal unless support quotes a different term.
Any registrar
Point nameservers here even if the registration stays elsewhere, or upgrade a zone already on Free DNS.
What DNS is, and why it matters
- DNS is the address book of the internet. Every site and mailbox look-up starts there.
- Look-ups are time-limited. Slow or missing answers drop the request and the visit fails.
- Hosting and email both depend on published records answering quickly and correctly.
- Premium DNS focuses on staying reachable, signing answers when possible, and resisting common DNS floods.

How to get Premium DNS
Have a domain
Register here, or point an external name with Free DNS first.
Request Premium DNS
Open a support request or use the account tools. Confirm the yearly fee before provisioning.
Set nameservers if needed
If the name is not already on Reginova DNS, switch to the Premium DNS nameserver pair support provides.
Copy or edit records
Records on Free/Standard DNS are kept when possible. From a third-party DNS provider, add records manually before you cut over.
Frequently asked questions
What is Premium DNS?
It is an authoritative DNS service with a larger anycast footprint, DNSSEC when supported, failover targets, and a published yearly fee. Standard DNS stays included with registration.
Do I need Premium DNS?
Most sites are fine on standard or Free DNS. Choose Premium DNS for busy stores, security-sensitive brands, or migrations that need short TTLs and failover.
What is the difference between public DNS and Premium DNS?
Public recursive resolvers look things up for end users. Premium DNS is authoritative for your zone: it publishes the records that those resolvers ask for.
Is a DNS upgrade worth it?
If downtime or forged DNS answers would hurt the business, yes. Performance and DDoS resilience are the usual reasons.
How secure is Premium DNS?
It combines anycast distribution, optional DNSSEC, and a design aimed at DNS-layer floods. It does not replace a CDN or application firewall.
Is DNS the same as a VPN?
No. DNS maps names to addresses. A VPN encrypts a user’s connection to a remote network.
Can DNS slow down a site?
Slow or failing DNS look-ups delay the first connection. Anycast Premium DNS is meant to keep answers fast and available.
Does Premium DNS include DDoS protection?
It is built to absorb and redistribute DNS-layer floods across nodes. It is not a full Layer-7 website WAF.
Can I use it with a domain registered elsewhere?
Yes. Point the nameservers to the Premium DNS pair after support provisions the zone.
Will my site go offline during the switch?
Plan a short window. Lower TTLs a day ahead, copy records first, then change nameservers.
Service notes
- Premium DNS is confirmed in support before billing changes.
- DNSSEC is only available when the registry supports it.
- Switching from a third-party DNS provider does not auto-import records. Copy them first.
- Premium DNS is not sold as part of a domain transfer cart line; request it after the name is active or pointed here.
