I finally got fed up with trying to deal with the flaky service at Granite Canyon. They didn't reload NS1 for a week (and it's down half the time), and it takes numerous tries to get the damned zone files to update.
While searching around for another service, I came across this site.
They have about fifty services listed total and, where info is available, they have ranked the services. I wish I would have seen the ratings before wasting my time with GC. Shame on me for forgetting the old adage, you get what you pay for.
Also during the course of searching, I found ZoneEdit.com. They are a pay service, but they offer the first five zones free. I had one of mine set up in minutes, the zone file was created INSTANTLY, and 24 hours later, it's working.
If you have a handful of domains you need DNS for, and they are more then just "play" sites, stay away from Granite Canyon, and look at ZoneEdit.

I remember when GC was acually pretty reliable, but as with all free services, that didn't last too long.
