What is DNS Lookup?

DNS Lookup is the process of querying the Domain Name System (DNS) to access detailed information about a domain’s records. These records play a vital role in mapping domain names to IP addresses, directing emails, and verifying security settings. A DNS Lookup helps resolve issues, validate domain setups, and optimize your online services for peak performance.

Key DNS Record Types Explained

• A Record (Address Record): Connects a domain name to its IPv4 address, enabling visitors to access your website.
• AAAA Record: Links a domain to its IPv6 address, ensuring compatibility with modern internet protocols.
• CNAME Record: Creates an alias for one domain, allowing multiple domains to point to the same host effortlessly.
• MX Record: Specifies mail servers for email delivery, ensuring emails reach the correct inbox.
• NS Record: Defines the authoritative name servers for your domain, crucial for proper DNS functioning.
• TXT Record: Stores text-based information, commonly used for SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for email security.
