I haven't looked at their site, but I'll guess standard DNS is they host
your site name on their name server. The higher one allows you to add A
records, MX records, CNAME etc..

Host your own is self- explanatory.

You are required to have a valid name server when registering a domain with
IANA, so the would need for you to do one of the three options.  I don't
know that they have the best price..
