Whois domain lookup

A Whois domain lookup allows you to trace the ownership and tenure of a domain name.
Depending on the registrar, you can see various information like who is it registered to, when it was registered and when it expires, where the DNS is hosted, and more..

What is the WHOIS database?

The WHOIS database is a searchable list of every single domain currently registered in the world. It serves as a central directory for querying domain name registration details, including the registrant’s contact information, administrative and technical contacts, registration and expiration dates, and the domain’s name servers.

WHOIS data is primarily utilized for administrative and legal purposes. Some common uses included:

  • Domain Registration Verification: Individuals and organizations can use WHOIS to verify the registration details of a domain name to ensure its legitimacy and ownership.
  • Contacting Domain Owners: Businesses, law enforcement agencies, and individuals may need to contact domain owners for various reasons, such as resolving trademark disputes, reporting abuse, or negotiating the purchase of a domain.
  • Investigations and Legal Proceedings: Law enforcement agencies, lawyers, and investigators may use WHOIS data to gather evidence for legal proceedings, including cases of cybercrime, fraud, or intellectual property infringement.
  • Network Troubleshooting: IT professionals and network administrators often use WHOIS to troubleshoot technical issues related to domain names, such as identifying the responsible party for domain name server (DNS) configuration problems.
  • Research and Analysis: Researchers and analysts may use WHOIS data for studying domain registration trends, mapping networks, or conducting market research.

The WHOIS database is maintained by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). According to ICANN’s policies, anyone who registers a domain has to provide their contact information, which includes their name, address, phone number, and email address. This information is then made publicly available through the WHOIS database. However, it’s worth noting that with the implementation of privacy protection services offered by domain registrars, WHOIS data may not always provide comprehensive information, as some registrants choose to mask their personal details to prevent spam or identity theft.

Frequently asked questions

The Whois database contains details such as the registration date of the domain name, when it expires, ownership and contact information, nameserver information of the domain, the registrar via which the domain was purchased, etc.

An IP is a unique address of a server on the internet. Similar to how a telephone number allows you to connect to a specific phone on the telecom network, similarly, an IP address allows your computer to connect to a specific server on the internet.

Domain names and IP numbers are the framework upon which the entire world wide web is built.

IP numbers are assigned to networking organisations with a record maintained by governing bodies for each IP number and the organisation to which it has been assigned. A whois IP lookup allows you track the above mentioned details for a domain.

Enter the domain or IP address for which you would like to conduct a Whois lookup in the search box above. We will query the appropriate database and provide a recent record.

If you have purchased a domain, the information stored with your Domain registrar is what is passed on to the Registry for the Whois database. Get in touch with your Registrar to make changes to the Whois contact information for each of your domains.

Some Registrars offer privacy protection services that allow their customers to mask their actual contact details in the Whois search result in order to prevent their private contact information falling into the hands of spammers and scammers. Get in touch with your Registrar to learn more about your options.

If the owner of a Domain name has used the privacy protection services of their Registrar, some details may be hidden within the Whois lookup results. Additionally, some Registries proactively conceal some information in order to comply with local data privacy protection laws.

According to the rules established by ICANN, Registrars are expected to maintain the accuracy of the domain name owner's contact details in the Whois database. Most Registrars use the details provided by the buyer at the time the Domain was registered.

In case your information does not match the Whois results, you can change this information by getting in touch with your Registrar who will be able to assist you in updating your information. Once this information is updated, the Whois record will also update accordingly. On an average, it can take 24-24 hours for this change to reflect in the Whois database.
