GeoDNS (Geographical Domain Name System) is a traffic distribution process based on the requests’ location. It is also called traffic director or global traffic director. Using GeoDNS service, you can efficiently optimize traffic to domains through the use of geographical-based routing.

How does the service work?

Once you start using GeoDNS service by ClouDNS, your visitor’s requests will go through our DNS servers (you can use all the available name servers associated with your account). Each of them is using our Anycast DNS network, close to your customers who makes the DNS queries. Based on the visitor location the name servers respond with the IP address you have configured for them. The result: you will direct your traffic to servers located in the continent where the visitors are sending the query from, just by setting up a few DNS records through the ClouDNS Control Panel.

Briefly explained: The GeoDNS service redirects the traffic to the predetermined IP address, which is usually the closest to the request’s origin. It is commonly used by international businesses.

Take your business to the next level of speed with GeoDNS

Cost Effective. No overbilling.

We are providing the most cost effective GeoDNS services on the market with high enough amount of zones, records and queries per month. Even though we have limits for DNS queries per month, we will not bill you additionally or suspend your DNS when you have peaks in your traffic resulting in higher number of DNS queries. If the queries are consistently over the limit, we will contact you to discuss the possibilities of upgrading your account. Our GeoDNS manages all aspects of your DNS without you having to buy hardware, install software, or hire more IT personnel.

Multiple Geolocation target options

With our GeoDNS service you can target by United States regions, Canadian regions, whole countries or continents. By using our GeoDNS you can build highly accurate Geolocation Load Balancing or Content Delivery Network (CDN). Segment your traffic and send users to the servers closer to them.

EDNS-client-subnet support

Build your own CDN or Geolocation Load Balancing with highly accurate geolocation service that makes the decisions on the real location of the visitor, not on the location of the DNS resolver he is using. Our GeoDNS service is tested and fully compatible with services like OpenDNS and Google Public DNS.

DDoS Protected DNS

DDoS attacks are on the rise in both frequency and severity. DDoS Protection is a must have feature for your DNS. We are providing both DDoS Protected DNS and GeoDNS into single service.

Search engine friendly

One of the ranking signals of all search engines is page loading speed. Since DNS lookups are routed to the closest available location thanks to our Anycast Network, the load times for your visitors are significantly reduced. The faster your site, the higher your rank.

Scalability

Our GeoDNS network is strategically placed in close proximity to high traffic geographic locations. We are always monitoring and expanding our network as traffic growth increases from a certain region. With 63 Anycast DNS Data Centers on 6 continents your users will get their DNS queries resolved as close as possible to their location.
