The last couple of weeks I’ve been working hard on putting the finishing touches on DNSimple, a new hosted domain name management service for small businesses and entrepreneurs. After working on domain services for more than 10 years, both as a domain registrar back in the late ’90s and through operating a domain registry and registrar for several years, it’s time for me to put together a DNS service that caters to the needs of other entrepreneurs like me.

What are the specifics? For $10/month you can to manage up to 50 domains using DNSimple. Each domain can have as many records as you need. Our DNS servers are updated almost instantly as you add records to your domain. We support TTL times as low as 1 minute. Repetitive changes can be set up as templates and we already include a default template for setting up Google MX records for domains that host their mail at Google.

I look forward to getting feedback on what you think of the service, what could be improved and what if anything would keep you from adopting it. You can either contact me via email or send me a message on Twitter. Thanks!
