❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between DNS and Whois?β–Ύ
Whois shows registration info (who owns it, expiry date). DNS shows where the domain points (which server).
Why is my A record missing?β–Ύ
Either it was never configured, or DNS hasn't propagated yet. Changes usually take 10 minutes to 24 hours.
What is MX for?β–Ύ
MX records tell the world where to deliver email for your domain. Without them, mail bounces.
Is this DNS lookup free?β–Ύ
Yes, no limits.
How do I modify DNS records?β–Ύ
Log in to your registrar or DNS provider (Cloudflare, Route53, etc.) and edit the zone.
Why do different tools return different results?β–Ύ
DNS caches and regional nodes can differ. Results may vary between countries.
