What does the internet say about your domain?

When someone types your site's address or sends an email to you, their device asks DNS: where is the site? Which server should the mail go to? The answers live in the DNS records you set at your domain registrar or host. Jood's DNS records lookup shows you those records the way the rest of the world sees them, so you can confirm that your settings work.

How to use it

  1. Type the domain in the "Domain Name" box, such as example.com, or paste a full address and the tool will take the domain from it.
  2. Click "Start Now".
  3. A table shows each record's type, host, value and TTL, along with the total number of records.

The records it shows

  • A and AAAA: the address of the server that hosts the site, in IPv4 and then IPv6.
  • MX: the mail servers, with their priority in brackets. The lowest number is tried first.
  • TXT: assorted text, including the SPF record that starts with v=spf1 and says who may send email on your behalf, and the verification codes Google and other services ask for.
  • NS: the name servers, which tell you who actually manages your records, such as Cloudflare or your host.
  • CNAME: an alias pointing to another name. You usually see it on subdomains like www or shop, not on the main domain.
  • SOA: details about who is responsible for the zone, including a serial number that changes with every edit.

Three situations where it helps

  • You moved to a new host: check that the A record carries the new server's address.
  • Your email does not arrive or lands in spam: check the MX records and that there is exactly one correct SPF record among the TXT entries.
  • You connected your domain to an outside service: a store or an email platform asks for a CNAME or TXT record, and here you confirm it is in place with the right value.

About TTL and waiting after a change

The TTL column gives, in seconds, how long servers keep a copy of the record before asking again. If you changed a record and still see the old value, wait for that time to run out, which can be several hours. The result comes from Jood's server, not your device, so it reflects what the rest of the world sees. One last note: the domain needs an A or AAAA address for the lookup to run.

To get the IP address quickly, use the domain to IP lookup, and to check the security certificate, the SSL certificate checker.
