🌐 WHOIS & Domain Lookup
Check any domain's age, expiry, registrar and full DNS records — plus DNSSEC, nameservers and email-security (SPF/DMARC) checks. Free, instant & easy to read on any screen.
Everything About a Domain, in One View
Registration, DNS and email security together — the full picture, not just a wall of raw WHOIS text.
Age & Expiry at a Glance
The summary leads with domain age, days to expiry and registrar — plus a visual timeline from registration to renewal.
Every DNS Record
A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, CNAME, SOA and CAA — grouped by type and colour-coded, never crammed into a scrolling table.
Email-Security Checks
Instant SPF, DMARC and MX checks reveal whether a domain can be spoofed — a fast trust signal for any site.
DNSSEC, CAA & Status
See whether DNS answers are signed, which CAs may issue certs, and what registry locks protect the domain.
Nameservers & More
The full nameserver list, IPv6 readiness and last-updated date — the details that tell you how a domain is run.
Free & Private
Public DNS + RDAP only, no account, no limits, full dark mode and responsive down to 280px screens.
How to Use the Domain Lookup
Four steps — results appear in about a second.
Enter a domain
Type any domain — example.com, sub.example.co.uk, anything. www and https:// are stripped automatically.
Read the summary
Age, expiry, registrar and record count appear right under the search box, so the key facts need no scrolling.
Scan the timeline & checks
See how far through its term the domain is, and whether its email security (SPF/DMARC) and DNSSEC are in place.
Dig into the records
Browse every DNS record and the explained status flags to understand exactly how the domain is configured.
Frequently Asked Questions
What WHOIS is, why owner details are hidden, the DNS records and security checks, and how to read the status flags.
What is a WHOIS lookup?
A WHOIS lookup queries the public registration record of a domain name. It tells you when the domain was registered, when it expires, which registrar manages it, what its nameservers are, and any status locks. Modern lookups use RDAP — a structured, JSON-based successor to the old text WHOIS protocol — which is exactly what this tool uses behind the scenes.
How do I use this domain lookup tool?
Type a domain like example.com (with or without www or https://) and press Lookup. Within a second you'll see a summary of the domain's age, expiry and registrar at the top, followed by a registration timeline, email-security checks, every DNS record, the domain's status flags and its nameservers. Tap one of the example domains to see it in action instantly.
Why can't I see the owner's name and address?
Since GDPR came into force in 2018 and ICANN updated its rules, registries and registrars redact personal registrant details (name, email, address) from public WHOIS/RDAP for most domains. You'll still see the registrar, key dates and status — but the owner's identity is hidden unless they use a business contact or the registry publishes it.
What DNS records does it show?
It fetches the most useful record types: A and AAAA (IPv4/IPv6 addresses), MX (mail servers), NS (nameservers), TXT (including SPF), CNAME (aliases), SOA (zone authority), CAA (which certificate authorities may issue certs), and the _dmarc record. Records are grouped by type so nothing scrolls off the side of your screen.
What do the email-security checks mean?
They quickly show whether a domain is set up to send trustworthy email. MX means mail servers are configured; SPF and DMARC are TXT records that stop others from spoofing the domain in emails. A domain with MX but no SPF or DMARC can be impersonated by spammers — so these checks are a fast health snapshot for any domain you deal with.
What is DNSSEC and why does it matter?
DNSSEC cryptographically signs a domain's DNS answers so attackers can't quietly swap in fake records (for example, to redirect you to a phishing site). When the tool reports DNSSEC as enabled, it means the registry confirms the zone is signed — a sign the domain owner takes security seriously.
What do domain status codes like 'clientTransferProhibited' mean?
These are EPP status codes set by the registrar or registry. 'clientTransferProhibited', for instance, is a lock that stops the domain being transferred away without the owner's action — a good anti-hijacking measure. The tool explains each status it finds in plain English so you don't have to memorise the codes.
Is this WHOIS lookup free and private?
Yes. It's completely free with no limits, and it only queries public DNS and RDAP data — the same records anyone can access. Nothing you look up is tied to an account, and the lookup runs through a lightweight server step purely because raw DNS and WHOIS can't be queried directly from a browser.
