About DNS Lookup
Inspect any domain’s DNS records without a terminal, for migrations, email setup, and debugging.
Enter a domain and record type. The tool queries a public DNS-over-HTTPS resolver and lists every answer with its TTL. MX results reveal your mail exchangers, TXT shows SPF/DKIM/verification strings, and SOA exposes the serial to compare primaries.
Results reflect the resolver’s current view — propagation delays mean your authoritative data and public answers can differ for up to the old TTL. Queries run from your browser; no account needed.
Where it is used
Verifying MX records before email cutover, confirming nameserver changes propagated, debugging missing TXT/SPF/DKIM records, and auditing CNAME chains.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why do I see different results than dig?
- Different resolvers, different caches. Public DoH resolvers may lag your authoritative nameserver by up to the record TTL.
- What does NXDOMAIN mean?
- The name does not exist in DNS at all — usually a typo, or a record deleted so recently that caches still disagree.
- How do I verify email records?
- Check MX for the mail host, TXT for v=spf1 and DKIM selectors, and confirm they match your provider’s required values exactly.
