Found a very interesting site, it’s called Quick Buck Crew Site. Well, what this little crazy site does is to expose websites that simply tries to make trick or cheat their customers of their hard earned money. We are talking about scammers here, who takes your money and then run off into the night. It has a blacklist of such sites which visitors can come and check whether someone (or a site) is a cheater or scammer. They have a QBC (Quick Buck Crew) Wall of Shame thingy you can look out for.

Please note that this site is an opinion of one person, not really a true blacklist at all. And most of the information is gathered from Digitalpoint forums. Although this forum is pretty big, it is still highly opinionated and can be rather one-sided so you should be careful. This kind of forum is full of scammers too. I myself don’t always trust what the crowd in Digitalpoint forums say, and you should always do your own research too.

Anyway, if you are planning to pay for a service, it is always better to do your own research and seek out the opinion of different groups of people. You should not depend on a certain type of people, especially if that “type” tends to be “follow the wind” kind. You will never get an accurate review. And if you read Digitalpoint forums carefully, you will realize that they tend to sway one side. Just check out the directories subforum. Just too full of ass-kissers and sheeps who simply just agrees everything with the crowd. Actually, it is kind of sad to see such people in a “technical” forum.

Being a generous person, I have created a list of free DNS host on the Internet. Anyone looking for a free DNS host should start looking from this list. This comes from my little research on my email server project which I have to either get DNS hosting from my ISP or use a third party DNS host. I choose to use a third party DNS hosting. Why? Because it is more responsive than the DNS hosting from my ISP. I really don’t trust my ISP, especially from the huge number of downtimes they keep having.

Anyway, most DNS host should be reliable. I have tried using several of them and none has failed me yet. Although I have to admit, I have only been using third party DNS hosting (not my webhost’s DNS) for a few months only. Still, I have seen claims of free DNS host having no downtime on their entire network. Not sure whether it is true or not, but I think it is credible enough, since DNS hosting is not really a resource hungry process. However, I have seen a few free DNS host shuting down but this is most likely a commercial decision than anything else.

Is it surprising that you see domain registrars offering webhosting/email hosting, but not many of them offer DNS hosting. I don’t know why. I think that all domain registrars should offer their customers the option of DNS hosting as this makes change of webhost a faster and smoother process. I know that DNS hosting is not really a big money making thing like webhosting and most people don’t care/know about DNS hosting at all, but hey, basics first baby, basics first.
