Domain WHOIS

Domain WHOIS is a useful tool that allows you to find out the WHOIS information of .com, .net, .org, .info, .xyz, .biz domain names. Just type in the domain name and click the button to view the WHOIS information.

How to look up who owns a domain

WHOIS shows the public registration data of a domain: the registrar, creation and expiry dates, name servers and status codes. Personal contact details are usually hidden, but the dates and registrar are almost always visible.

How to use it

  1. Enter a domain name, for example example.com.
  2. Run the lookup.
  3. Check the registrar, dates, name servers and status.

Example

If you are buying a domain from someone, WHOIS confirms when it was registered, when it expires and which registrar it has to be transferred from.

Good to know

  • Keep an eye on your own domain's expiry date. An expired domain takes your website and email offline.
  • The status clientTransferProhibited is normal. It protects the domain from unauthorised transfers.
  • To reach a hidden owner, use the registrar's contact form or the abuse contact shown in the result.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the owner's name hidden?

Privacy laws and WHOIS privacy services redact personal data. This is normal and does not mean anything suspicious.

The domain I want is registered but unused. Can I get it?

Check the expiry date. You can contact the owner through the registrar or use a backorder service in case it is not renewed.
