How to use this tool
Queries individual A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA and CAA types, or the type you select. ALL means this defined set at the entered owner, not an entire DNS zone.
Enter the target, complete any relevant options and choose Check. Review the requested records, query outcomes and diagnostic findings. Copy Report saves the visible report.
Reading the results
No matching records and an unavailable query are different outcomes. TTLs are displayed in seconds; zero is a valid TTL. A completed request does not mean a domain passed its health checks. Only the submitted DNS owner and explicitly listed checks are inspected.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this DNS lookup differ from my hosting panel?
Your hosting panel shows configured records. This lookup shows records returned through a public recursive resolver. Cached data may remain until its TTL expires.
Why is a recently changed DNS record still showing its old value?
Recursive resolvers can keep the earlier answer for its remaining TTL. The updated value appears after that cached record expires.
Can I check DNS records for a subdomain?
Yes. Enter the complete hostname such as shop.example.com. Only records published for that hostname can appear.
Why does the lookup return no CNAME record for my root domain?
A zone apex commonly uses A or AAAA records. Standard DNS rules often prevent a CNAME from sharing the apex with required records.
What does NXDOMAIN mean in the result?
NXDOMAIN means DNS could not find the requested name. Check the spelling and confirm that the domain or hostname exists.
Does a successful DNS lookup prove that the website is online?
No. DNS resolution only connects a name with published records. The web server can still be offline or reject requests.
