Type any domain. I read it from public records: who registered it and when, when it expires, its DNS and email setup, who hosts it and its certificate, with a health score out of 100.

Every domain leaves a public record: who registered it, when, until when, and how it's set up. Most of it takes 5 different tools to read.

This free domain checker reads it all in one go: registration, DNS, email setup, host and certificate, with a health score out of 100.

Here's what it checks, where each answer comes from, and how to fix what it finds.

What is a domain checker?

A domain checker is a tool that reads a domain's public records and shows how it's registered and set up.

Mine reads the registry itself, so you see the real registration date, the registrar and the expiry, plus 9 checks on the setup.

How to check a domain

Check any domain0/4

Where the answers come from

  • Registration – the registry's RDAP, the lookup that replaced WHOIS. For the endings without it, like .io and .me, I ask the registry's WHOIS.
  • DNS and email – the domain's DNS records, read over DNS over HTTPS.
  • Host – the site's own answer first, then who owns its IP address.
  • Certificate – the certificate the site shows on https.

How to fix what it finds

Most fixes are one switch: auto-renew and the transfer lock at your registrar, the free certificate at your host, and the SPF and DMARC records your email provider gives you.

Domain Checker FAQs

Questions about domains? Here's what to know.

A domain checker is a tool that reads a domain's public records.

This one shows its registration, DNS, email setup, host and certificate, with a health score.

Type the domain above.

The registration date comes straight from the registry, along with the registrar and the expiry.

Type its domain above.

I read the site's own answer first, then who owns its IP address, so a site on Vercel shows as Vercel, not as the network under it.

RDAP is the registries' own lookup that replaced WHOIS.

It answers in a standard format, straight from the registry.

An older domain has a longer history, which people and some ranking signals read as more established.

Age alone doesn't rank a site, but a brand new domain often starts slower.

SPF says which servers may send email for a domain, and DMARC tells inboxes what to do with mail that fails.

Together they stop others sending email as you.

Yes, the domain checker is free, with no sign-up.

Everything comes from public records, and each check is kept 6 hours.
