What is DNS Lookup?

DNS (Domain Name System) lookup is the process of translating a domain name into its corresponding IP address or retrieving other DNS records. When you type a website address in your browser, DNS servers work behind the scenes to find the correct server to connect to.

Common DNS Record Types

A Record

Maps a domain to an IPv4 address. The most fundamental DNS record.

MX Record

Specifies mail servers responsible for receiving email for the domain.

TXT Record

Holds text information. Often used for SPF, DKIM, and domain verification.

CNAME Record

Creates an alias that points to another domain name.
