Simply enter your domain name in the input field, select the DNS record type you want to check, and click "Check DNS" to see how your domain's DNS records have propagated across different DNS servers worldwide.
Why DNS Propagation Checking is Important for Developers
DNS propagation refers to the time it takes for DNS changes to spread across the internet. When you make changes to your domain's DNS records, these changes don't instantly appear worldwide. This tool helps you monitor this process and confirm when your DNS changes have fully propagated.
Use Cases in Development Workflows
This tool is valuable in several scenarios:
- After migrating a website to a new hosting provider to verify DNS changes are complete
- When setting up new subdomains to ensure they're correctly resolving
- Troubleshooting email delivery issues by checking MX records
- Verifying security measures such as SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are correctly published in TXT records
- During domain verification processes for various services

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How long does DNS propagation typically take?
DNS propagation can take anywhere from a few minutes to 72 hours, depending on factors like TTL (Time To Live) settings and the DNS providers involved.
Q. What DNS record types can I check with this tool?
This tool supports the most common DNS record types: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, and NS records.
Q. Why might DNS records appear different on different servers?
DNS servers cache records based on TTL values, so during a propagation period, some servers may show older records until their cache expires.
Q. Can I check multiple domains at once?
Currently, this tool checks one domain at a time for more detailed and accurate results.
