DNS Lookup

Query DNS records for any domain. Look up A, AAAA, MX, TXT, CNAME, NS, SOA, PTR, SRV, and CAA records instantly using Google's public DNS-over-HTTPS resolver.

Queries sent directly to Google Public DNS — we don't proxy or store any data
This tool is made possible thanks to Google Public DNS and their free DNS-over-HTTPS service. Thank you for making secure, fast DNS resolution available to everyone.

About DNS Lookup

The Domain Name System (DNS) translates human-readable domain names like example.com into IP addresses that computers use to communicate. DNS records control how traffic is routed, where email is delivered, and how domain ownership is verified.

A records map domains to IPv4 addresses, while AAAA records map to IPv6. MX records specify mail servers, TXT records hold verification data (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), and CNAME records create domain aliases.

This tool queries Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8) via their DNS-over-HTTPS API, providing fast, reliable lookups directly from your browser.

How it works
DNS Record Lookup (DNS-over-HTTPS)
01Domain input

The fully qualified domain name to query — e.g., example.com or subdomain.example.com

02Record type

DNS record type to query: A (IPv4), AAAA (IPv6), MX (mail), TXT (verification), CNAME (alias), NS (nameservers), SOA, CAA, SRV, PTR

03DoH request

Query sent to Google Public DNS over HTTPS (dns.google) — encrypted and authenticated, unlike traditional plaintext DNS

04Response

DNS server returns matching records with TTL (time-to-live), record data, and RCODE (NOERROR, NXDOMAIN, SERVFAIL)

05Results

Records displayed with name, type, TTL, and data — multiple records are common for MX, TXT, and NS queries

Spec: RFC 8484 (DNS-over-HTTPS), RFC 1035 (DNS), RFC 7858 (DNS-over-TLS)

DNS-over-HTTPS encrypts queries, preventing ISP snooping and DNS hijacking. Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8) is one of several providers — Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) and Quad9 (9.9.9.9) are alternatives.
