About

The original DNS provider.
==========================

ZoneEdit has been running DNS for individuals, builders, and businesses since 2000.

Founded by original co-founders Eric Aronesty and Mike Krebs, Zoneedit peaked at 1 million domains under management and for a time was the authoritative DNS service for the United States government .GOV TLD

In 2005, Zoneedit was acquired by Dotser and the original founders exited.

Our story
---------

Dotster was eventually acquired by Endurance International Group who had decided to sunset Zoneedit and put it into run-down mode. A period of general neglect, frequent outages and overall decline ensued.

easyDNS Enters The Chat
-----------------------

In 2014 easyDNS acquired Zoneedit from EIG in a “carve-out” transaction and made the decision to keep operating the business as a stand-alone brand, but with the same core operating philosophy: reliable DNS, functioning systems, human support, and long-term stewardship.
