Common questions about WHOIS lookups.
What is WHOIS?expand_more
WHOIS is a public database that records domain registration information — registrar, registration date, expiry date, nameservers, and sometimes registrant contact info (unless protected by WHOIS privacy).
Why use WHOIS lookup?expand_more
To check if a domain is available, find out who owns a domain, check expiry dates for portfolio domains, verify a domain's registrar, or troubleshoot DNS issues.
Is WHOIS lookup free?expand_more
Yes — completely free, no signup, no rate limits for reasonable use.
Why is registrant info hidden sometimes?expand_more
Many registrars (us included) offer WHOIS privacy by default for GDPR compliance and to protect domain owners from spam. You'll see registrar info but not personal details.
Can I check expired domains?expand_more
Yes. WHOIS shows expiry date so you can identify potentially available domains. For dropped domains, see our domain catching service (coming soon).
Does WHOIS show DNS records?expand_more
WHOIS shows nameservers (NS records) but not other DNS records. Use a DNS lookup tool for full A, MX, TXT, CNAME records.
