    Bailed on No-Ip.com as it's too big a pain -- major Captcha puzzle x2 each month. (Used to do no-ip paid, but price is now $25 instead of $14.) DuckDNS seems to do the job fine and it's no-nag free (for now).

    Too many redirects and then ads.

    No monthly check-in. Provides multiple DNS records even for free third level domains. SRV record is especially useful for me.

    Very convenient and stable service. Have used it for many years now. I like the fact that I don't have to check in or do anything to keep the free service going.
