DNS Lookup

A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS and CNAME records.

About the DNS Lookup

DNS records connect a domain to its website, email and verification settings. Look up A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, TXT, SOA and CAA records for any domain to check where it points and troubleshoot email or website problems.

When to use it

  • Checking that a new domain points to the right hosting
  • Verifying MX records when setting up business email
  • Confirming TXT records for Google, Microsoft or SPF verification
  • Finding which name servers a domain uses

Tips for the best results

  • DNS changes can take a few hours to spread worldwide
  • The TTL shows how long records are cached, in seconds
  • Check SPF, DKIM and DMARC TXT records if emails land in spam

How to use the DNS Lookup

  1. Enter a domain or press the button in the DNS Lookup.
  2. Our server runs the check and returns the result in seconds.
  3. Run it again any time to compare.
