About this tool

What is the DNS Records Checker?

A DNS records checker queries a domain for its A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS, TXT, SOA and CAA records and checks the email records SPF and DMARC. DNS decides where a domain's website and email are served.

This tool fetches the address you enter once, from our server, and reports what a crawler would receive. The URL is not stored; only a short-lived rate-limit counter is kept. Results show the page at the moment of the check and can differ from what a logged-in browser or a bot with different headers sees.

Guide

How to read the result and act on it

Check the summary first: the web record, name servers, mail routing, SPF and DMARC. Then read the table for exact values and TTLs. After moving hosts, confirm the A record points to the new IP. For email deliverability, make sure there is exactly one SPF record and a DMARC record. If values look old, remember caching: a long TTL means resolvers may keep the old answer for hours. Compare with the registrar's DNS panel to confirm your changes saved.

Common mistakes to avoid

The most common problem is two SPF records, which can make receivers reject both. Another is changing name servers without copying the old records first, which breaks email or subdomains. Do not set a very low TTL permanently, and do not forget www: it needs its own record or a redirect. Check after propagation, not immediately.

Next steps

Use this with

  • Domain Hosting Checker: Find which network hosts a domain: IP address, network owner, name servers and CDN clues.
  • Domain Age Checker: Look up when a domain was registered, when it expires and who the registrar is, from the public registry record.
  • HTTPS Redirect Checker: Check that http:// and www variants of a site redirect to one secure canonical address.
