FAQs

What is a DNS lookup?

A DNS lookup queries domain name servers to retrieve all DNS records associated with a domain, including IP addresses (A/AAAA records), mail servers (MX), and other technical configuration data.

Which DNS records can I check?

Our tool supports all major record types: A, AAAA, MX, CNAME, TXT, NS, SOA, PTR, and SRV records. You can query specific record types or fetch all available records simultaneously.

Why do I see different results than other tools?

DNS results can vary based on: your local resolver, TTL expiration times, geographic DNS routing, or recent changes still propagating (which can take up to 48 hours globally).

How often is the DNS data refreshed?

We perform live lookups with each query, bypassing cache. For propagation checks, use our "Global DNS Check" feature to test from multiple worldwide locations.

What does TTL (Time-To-Live) mean?

TTL indicates how long (in seconds) a record should be cached before refreshing. Lower TTLs (300-600) allow faster changes, while higher values (86400+) reduce server load.

Can I lookup DNS history?

While we show current records only, our historical data partners offer DNS archive services. Check the "History" tab for limited historical snapshots (when available).

Why does my domain show no records?

Common causes include: new domains not fully propagated, misconfigured name servers, or the domain being parked/inactive. Verify with WHOIS if the domain is actually registered.

How do I check DNS propagation?

Use our "Propagation Checker" to test your domain from 20+ global locations. Green checks indicate where new records have fully propagated.

What's the difference between authoritative and recursive lookups?

Authoritative queries go directly to the domain's name servers (showing current configured records), while recursive queries use your ISP's resolver (showing cached public records). Our tool performs both.

Can I export the DNS records?

Yes, all results can be exported as CSV, JSON, or zone file formats for easy migration or documentation. No registration required.
