You can pay for dyndns service which should be more reliable than free ones. I don't have any experience with those, so I can't give any recommendations. What I'm running is that I use few of the free ones which are updated either from my router or from a linux VM and I've just pointed few easy to remember CNAME records from my own domain to those dynamic addresses. It's not the best thing in the world, but my dynamic IP tends to be pretty static as it usually changes only when my own hardware is down for a longer period of time (few hours or so, so a longer power outage or a hardware maintenance gone wrong).
