As Eden explained, \u201cWe\u2019ve been in business since 2010. We\u2019re a very focused provider with DNS and domain registration at the center of what we do.\u201d The company\u2019s integrations also include automated SSL certificates through Let\u2019s Encrypt, offering what Eden described as a dependable backbone for engineers seeking efficiency.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"input-sentence~1\">When asked why web hosting companies should pay attention to DNSimple, Eden highlighted the challenge of scale and accessibility. Many small and mid-sized providers, he noted, struggle to match the integration capabilities of major competitors. \u201cWith something like ours, you can integrate with our API and resell domains and DNS service directly to your customers under your brand,\u201d he said. \u201cNobody even needs to know we exist.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Eden emphasized that the company\u2019s global DNS network supports more than 550 domain extensions, including recently added highly-regulated options such as .bank and .insurance. While most users focus on popular extensions like .com, .io, or .ai, DNSimple\u2019s reach continues to expand.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Interview with Anthony Eden, Founder &amp; CEO of DNSimple\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/F51GZ8bVEUQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"input-sentence~2\">While talking about pricing and integration, Eden opened up the company&#8217;s willingness to adapt as its main \u200b\u200d\u200b\u200c\u200d\u200b\u200d\u200c\u200b\u200d\u200b\u200c\u200d\u200b\u200d\u200ccharacteristic. He said <a href=\"https:\/\/dnsimple.com\/pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">DNSimple\u2019s pricing<\/a> structure depends on usage and volume, allowing customers to pay per zone and query rather than a flat rate.
