Setting up a cPanel DNSONLY server – Part 1 | Abused Competence

Setting up a cPanel DNSONLY server – Part 1 | Abused Competence: "In plain language, this means that, though it isn’t technically “required”, you should always have at least two DNS servers that are nowhere near each other serving DNS requests for your internet servers.  Nothing earth shattering will happen if you don’t do this (and many large-scale low-cost web hosting providers don’t follow the “two separate name servers” rule), but in the event that your name server goes down, no one will be able to find your server or any backup services that may be available because the domain name would no longer resolve."
