What is Premium DNS?
DNS acts as a directory for the internet by mapping domain names to IP addresses. When DNS experiences timeouts due to high traffic, it can lead to website errors. Premium DNS operates in the background to prevent DDoS attacks and enhance website uptime.
Premium DNS helps your website load quickly, regardless of where your visitors are located. It keeps your site secure and running while also protecting it from harmful attacks, such as DDoS attacks.
