Frequently Asked Questions
What is a WHOIS lookup?
A WHOIS lookup is a query protocol that allows you to access a database containing information about a registered domain name. It reveals details such as the domain owner (registrant), registrar, registration and expiration dates, and nameservers.
Is this WHOIS tool free?
Yes, our WHOIS lookup tool is 100% free to use. You can perform unlimited searches to check domain availability and ownership details without any cost or registration.
Why is some WHOIS information hidden?
Due to privacy regulations like GDPR, many domain owners use privacy protection services to redact their personal contact information (email, phone, address) from public WHOIS records. In these cases, you will see the privacy service provider's details instead.
How can I find out when a domain expires?
Simply enter the domain name into our WHOIS search bar. The results will display the "Registry Expiry Date" or "Registrar Registration Expiration Date," telling you exactly when the domain registration is set to expire.
