NAMEHELP information
What is NAMEHELP?
using public DNS services can result in seriously bad redirections sending users to get their content from CDN replicas that are three times farther away than necessary!
Public DNS services and CDN services are currently working to address the problem, but the current proposed solution has not yet attained widespread support leaving users with a bad choice between a rock and a hard place — bad web performance or bad security and privacy support.
However, all hope is not lost; namehelp may let you have your cake and eat it too — use public DNS without compromising on Web performance. namehelp runs personalized benchmarks in the background, from within your computer, to determine your optimal DNS configuration and improves your Web experience by helping sites load faster. If it finds that you are receiving less than optimal Web performance, namehelp automatically fixes it by cleverly interacting with DNS and CDNs to ensure you get your content from the nearest possible copy.
