Frequently asked questionsCommon questions answered

These answers explain common dns lookup tasks, expected input formats, and edge cases so both visitors and search engines can understand what this tool does.

What DNS record types are supported?

A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, CNAME, SOA, CAA, PTR, and ALL (which queries every supported type in one shot and returns only non-empty results).

Which DNS resolver is used?

Queries are resolved via Cloudflare DNS-over-HTTPS (cloudflare-dns.com). This gives fast, privacy-respecting results that reflect global DNS state rather than any one ISP's resolver cache.

Why does my record not appear?

DNS records take time to propagate after a change — typically between a few minutes and 48 hours depending on the TTL. If you just made a change, wait and check again. You can use the DNS Propagation tool to see how far your change has spread.
