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 use Cloudflare als your dns (you can transfer your existing domain) you can setup a cronjob that basically functions as a dynamic DNS. Then you only need to run this cronjob inside your home network. It's free if you already have a domain and something that runs 24/7 inside your home network
