Safer Web DNS Filter FAQs

What is DNS filtering?

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a critical component of using the Internet as it allows users to access websites with simple domain names instead of using IP addresses. Any application, program, or operating system that is connected to the Internet must make outgoing requests from your device to various servers located around the world. To do so, they will send a request to a DNS server first, to get their server’s IP.

The DNS can be seen as the Internet “phone book, ” which maps domains (www.example.com) to their respective Internet “IP address” (10.20.30.40). A DNS filter is an additional capability of not only mapping the domain name (example.com) to its IP address (10.20.30.40) but also adding a filter layer to custom block domains according to your configurations.

Why is the Safer Web DNS filter better than its competitors?

Most DNS filters are tech-oriented and hard to operate. ReasonLabs’ Safer Web DNS blocker is an extremely easy-to-use program built with a pre-loaded configuration that is recommended for most users.

The configuration can be easily modified through the app interface, where you can enable or disable connections to malicious websites, block ads and trackers that collect your online information, and block explicit content that is inappropriate to view with your children.

Safer Web is an extremely intuitive product that functions throughout an entire device and is not limited to a hosting browser like some ad blocks are. Safer Web is available as a free-to-use program and currently offers protection on PCs and Android-powered mobile devices.

How does a DNS ad blocker and content filter work?

Any application such as a browser, web or mobile application, program, or operating system connected to the Internet, will make an outgoing request from your device to a DNS (Domain Name System). A DNS is like an Internet “phone book, ” which maps domains (www.example.com) to their respective Internet “IP address” (10.20.30.40). Safer Web’s DNS server not only maps the domain name (example.com) to its IP address (10.20.30.40) but also adds a filter layer to custom block domains according to your configurations.

Is the Safer Web DNS filter available for free?

ReasonLabs’ Safer Web DNS Filtering service is available both as a free service as well as a paid service with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Pricing may vary depending on your location for desktop or mobile use. See the plan picker above to choose the right subscription for you.

How does Safer Web DNS protection act as parental control software to protect my kids?

Safer Web allows you to easily manage the online content your kids are exposed to - on the browser and on a variety of commonly used applications. It’s extremely easy to install, and you can remotely control your kids’ configurations from your device. You can block their access to adult content and gambling sites, dating services, and anything else you deem inappropriate for their age. You can block explicit content, ads, and trackers on all apps and games on mobile and desktop devices. You can also block explicit videos on YouTube and apply Google Safe Search by default.

How does Safer Web’s DNS filtering service increase my Internet connection speed?

ReasonLabs’ Safer Web is just as fast or even faster than your default DNS. By blocking various types of trackers, ads, and unwanted or unneeded services, the load on your Internet connection decreases. This decrease in turn increases your overall Internet speed and makes for an overall better Internet browsing experience.
