You can have your own DNS if you want, and I'll cover that in the last part of the series. But right now, we will not have our own DNS server. What we are going to do is sign up for a DNS service provider.

First, register a domain. You can get one for free Sign up for a free account. You can have up to two domains per account. They are in the form MiRe is but don't freak out here.Not all domains are free, some require up to. The trick is to make a simple spelling mistake. MangoesAreSticky comes for, but take the e out of Mangoes and the domain is free for life.

When you set up your domain, use the first of three configuration options. Set up the name servers as nsl. everydns.com through ns4. everydns. com' (4 in all, you need to add 2).

Now go to Sign up for another free account. You will be signed in immediately. Add your domain as a basic domain (on the left). Give the full name without the The right pane will now show a table with a single A (the IP address) and a 'CNAME' record. You need to add one more first and then remove the other two.

Remember the static IP address that your ISP gave you when you asked for it? Just below the table is the form for adding a record. Give the domain name without the www in the first field. Now let the record type be A. In the value field, give your static IP address. If it's BSNL, then it most probably starts with 59. Then commit the changes. Your existing A record will change to reflect the new settings with a TTL or Time To Live of 3600 seconds, or 60 minutes.
