Why would persons pay no-ip and others over $9.0/ month for dynamic dns. When you own your own domain is beyong me. Even worst, you purchased your domain with the likes no-ip.com, and others. They still want you to pay!!

Help me understand the logics.

If you own your own domain, no-ip wouldn't be where I would go no..

I doubt that 9/month price is intended for "home" users.. 50 hosts, this seems more suited for a smb that doesn't really have some senior network engineer setting everything up for them.. And more the guy got promoted to IT because hey he knew how to setup the wifi router ;)

For some smb, with a few locations and wanting to have some fqdn point to their changing IP because since well they only have consumer level connections, etc. And they don't understand how any of it works anyway.. 100$ year seems a fairly reasonable price.
