DNS Made Easy was started in 2002 as a free DNS solution targeted at home users and small businesses. The initial draw of the services was support for dynamic DNS. The service allowed users to configure a registered domain in a web control panel and update a continuously changing IP address using a dynamic DNS software client. Demand for the services was high which required upgrades to the initial infrastructure. To support user requests and expanding infrastructure, DNS Made Easy was converted to a paid service months after launch in 2002.

In the years since its founding DNS Made Easy has continuously expanded services and network infrastructure to offer enterprise level services to companies of all sizes. DNS Made Easy is a United States based company with a corporate headquarters located in Reston, VA and multiple network points of presence worldwide.
