What the DNS lookup checks

  • Three resolvers at once

    Google, Cloudflare and AdGuard answer side by side, so you see what the rest of the web sees.

  • Six record types

    Pick A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, NS or TXT. Each resolver shows the exact value it returned.

  • Propagation check

    Matching answers mean your change is live. Different answers mean it’s still spreading.

DNS lookup questions

Straight answers about your results.

How long does a DNS change take to show up?

Most changes show up within an hour. Some resolvers keep old answers until the record’s TTL runs out, which can take up to 48 hours. Run the lookup again later to watch them catch up.

Why do the resolvers show different answers?

Each resolver keeps its own copy of your records for a set time. After a change, some copies update before others. Different answers mean the change is still spreading.

Which record type should I check?

Use A for where your website points, MX for email, TXT for SPF and site verification, NS for who runs your DNS, and CNAME for aliases like www.

Is the DNS lookup free?

Yes. It’s free and there’s nothing to sign up for.
