How to use the DNS Lookup tool

1

Enter a domain name

Type or paste any domain - e.g. example.com. You can include or omit www. The tool strips the protocol if you paste a full URL.

2

Choose a record type

Select the type of DNS record you want to query. A is the most common (IPv4 address). MX for email, TXT for SPF/DMARC, NS for name servers.

3

Click Look Up

Results appear immediately below. If a domain has no records of the selected type, you'll see an empty result rather than an error.

Frequently asked questions

What DNS record types does this tool support?

ToolBit supports A (IPv4 address), AAAA (IPv6), CNAME (canonical name alias), MX (mail exchanger), TXT (text records), and NS (name server) records.

Do I need an account to use the DNS lookup tool?

No. The DNS Lookup tool is completely free and requires no account or sign-in. Just enter a domain and hit Look Up.

What are TXT records used for?

TXT records are most commonly used for email authentication. SPF specifies which servers may send email for a domain, DKIM provides a public key for signature verification, and DMARC defines how receivers should handle failed authentication. Domain ownership verification tokens (Google Search Console, etc.) are also stored as TXT records.

What is an MX record?

An MX (Mail Exchanger) record tells email senders which server handles inbound email for a domain. Each MX record includes a priority number - lower numbers have higher priority - and the mail server hostname.

Why might results differ from other DNS tools?

Different DNS resolvers can return different results if a change is still propagating globally, or if cached TTL values haven't expired yet. ToolBit queries using the server's system resolver.
