DNS Lookup
See look up DNS records for any domain including A, AAAA, MX, NS, CNAME, TXT, SOA, CAA, and PTR records with real-time results.
Last updated: June 13, 2026
Multiple Record Types
Query A, AAAA, MX, NS, CNAME, TXT, SOA, CAA, and PTR records simultaneously in a single lookup.
Real-Time TTL Values
See the Time To Live (TTL) for each DNS record, helping you understand propagation and caching status.
No Data Stored
Your DNS queries are processed in real-time and never cached or stored on our servers.
DNS Lookup — No Uploads Required
Perform comprehensive DNS lookups for any domain using our free DNS Lookup tool. Query multiple record types simultaneously including A (IPv4), AAAA (IPv6), MX (Mail Exchange), NS (Name Servers), CNAME (Canonical Name), TXT (Text), SOA (Start of Authority), CAA (Certification Authority Authorization), and PTR (Reverse DNS) records. Each lookup also shows the TTL (Time To Live) values. Whether you're debugging email delivery issues, verifying DNS propagation after a migration, checking SPF/DKIM/DMARC records, or analyzing domain infrastructure, our tool provides fast, accurate results directly from authoritative DNS servers. No data is cached or stored.
Why This Tool Exists
What makes this useful — and why I built it this way.
Email Troubleshooting: Verify SPF, DKIM, and DMARC TXT records to diagnose email deliverability issues and spoofing risks.
Migration Verification: Confirm DNS propagation after changing hosting providers or switching mail servers.
Security Auditing: Check CAA records to ensure only authorized CAs can issue certificates for your domain.
When You'd Use This
Real situations where this tool saves the day.
DevOps & SysAdmin: Verify DNS configuration after server migrations or infrastructure changes.
Email Deliverability: Check SPF and DKIM TXT records to prevent legitimate emails from being marked as spam.
Security Research: Analyze domain infrastructure and verify CAA record configurations.
Using DNS Lookup
It's straightforward — here's how it works.
Enter the domain name (e.g., google.com) in the search field.
Select the DNS record types you want to query using the toggle buttons.
Click 'Lookup DNS' to fetch the selected records in real-time.
Click any record type header to expand and view individual records with TTL values.
Use the 'Copy' or 'Download' buttons to save the full DNS report.
Questions People Ask
Honest answers about how this works.
What even is a DNS lookup?
Short answer: A DNS (Domain Name System) lookup queries domain name servers to find information about a domain, such as its IP address (A/AAAA), mail servers (MX), or text records (TXT).
Why would I need a TXT record lookup?
TXT records are commonly used for email security verification (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), domain ownership verification, and various security policies. Checking them helps diagnose email delivery issues.
How long does DNS propagation take?
Great question. DNS propagation typically takes 24-48 hours but can be as quick as a few minutes depending on the TTL (Time To Live) values set on your records. Our tool shows the current TTL for each record.
Can I really look up all record types at once?
Honestly? Yes, you can select multiple record types before performing a lookup. All selected types will be queried simultaneously and displayed in organized groups.
