What is SmartDNS and Why Should I Ask About It
What is this SmartDNS is that the same as DNS? Yes and No SmartDNS is a technology that allows for your DNS Requests to be routed to DNS Servers nearest the Website you are trying to visit. Some VPN Providers that offer this feature will go a step further and route all of your traffic to a server closest to the website you are trying to visit. This is very helpful for on the fly Anonymity so you can visit three different websites in three different countries and look like you are in those countries for their respective website. Because of how this feature operates it is usually found in the Browser Extensions of your VPN Provider. If you would like to know if a VPN Provider offers this it is best to ask in chat since it isn’t typically advertised. Sadlly none of the VPN Providers on my list at this time happen to offer this feature. Hopefully they will integrate this technology into their products or a VPN Provider that offers this feature will prove themselves enough to be added to my list. I hope I was able to clarify what SmartDNS is in this post if you are still confused about any terms I may have used in this post feel free to leave a comment and I will get back to you as soon as possible(most likely within 24 hrs) or you can Browse my Profile Page I usually write Articles about any and all terms that I use in my Posts.
