DNS (Domain Name System or Domain Name Service) is an Internet service that translates domain names to or from IP addresses, which are the actual basis of addresses on the Internet.

For example, if your web site has the domain name "www.mywebsite.com", it is the Domain Name Service which "resolves" the name "www.mywebsite.com" to the IP address of the server where the site can be found.

3D RESEARCH offers free DNS with any hosting account.
