FAQs
How does domain location detection work?
Our tool analyzes the hosting server's IP address, then cross-references it with global geolocation databases to identify the physical server location (country, city, and coordinates when available).
Why is my domain showing the wrong country?
Common reasons include: CDN/proxy usage (like Cloudflare), hosting providers with global networks, or outdated geolocation databases. The IP WHOIS tab often reveals the actual hosting provider's location.
Can I find the exact physical address?
We typically show city-level accuracy. Exact addresses are rarely available due to security reasons, but you can often identify the data center provider through the ISP information in WHOIS records.
How accurate is the city-level detection?
About 85-90% accurate for major cities. Rural areas or cloud regions may show the nearest metropolitan area. Accuracy varies by IP allocation policies of local internet registries.
Does this work for all domain extensions?
Yes, location detection works for all gTLDs and ccTLDs. However, country-code domains don't necessarily mean the site is hosted in that country - we show actual server locations.
Why does my site show multiple locations?
This indicates load balancing or CDN usage. Our tool detects all active server IPs. Check the "Network" tab to see distribution percentages across locations.
Can I track location history changes?
While we show current data only, you can bookmark results and compare over time. Some web hosting migration patterns become visible after multiple checks.
How does this differ from IP geolocation?
Domain location focuses on hosting servers, while IP geolocation tracks visitor locations. We also correlate domain registration countries from WHOIS data for complete context.
Can I use this for legal/abuse reports?
Our data can help identify hosting providers for abuse complaints, but always verify with the ISP's abuse contact from WHOIS records for official reports.
Why is my VPN location detected incorrectly?
VPNs and proxies often use exit nodes in unexpected locations. For accurate results, check domains without active VPN connections and compare with our IP lookup tool.
