Not quite sure where your DNS comes from?
Pg. 22
Some easy ways to find out:
1) Ask whoever runs your website – they are definitely sure to know!
2) In Terminal, do a whois command to see your name servers: whois example.com
3) In Terminal, do a dig command to see your name servers (Linux & Mac only): dig example.com

For the love of your website, rely on a Managed DNS provider.

of reliability.
Don’t put all of your eggs in one basket.

For the love

Your CDN provider’s DNS limits you on what you can do with your website.
Standalone DNS gives you the flexibility to failover to other resources when your CDN experiences issues.
Don’t get locked into a single CDN provider.

A CDN is only half the battle!
