Complete Guide

What is WHOIS?

WHOIS is a protocol and database that maintains information about domain registrations. When you register a domain, your registration details are stored in the WHOIS database. This tool queries that database to retrieve and display publicly available domain information.

What Information Does WHOIS Show?

  • Registrar: The company that registered the domain
  • Registration Date: When the domain was first registered
  • Last Updated: When WHOIS information was last modified
  • Expiration Date: When the domain registration expires
  • Nameservers: DNS servers handling the domain

Why Check WHOIS Information?

  • Domain Research: Learn about competitor sites
  • DNS Configuration: Verify nameserver setup
  • Expiration Monitoring: Track domain renewal dates
  • Troubleshooting: Debug DNS issues
  • Verification: Confirm domain ownership

Understanding Nameservers

Nameservers are DNS servers that store DNS records for a domain. When someone visits your domain, their browser queries the nameservers to find your website's IP address. Most domains have at least 2 nameservers for redundancy. The nameservers shown in WHOIS data tell you which DNS provider manages the domain's DNS records.

Private vs. Public WHOIS

  • Public WHOIS: Registrant information is publicly visible
  • Private WHOIS: Contact info is masked with proxy details
  • GDPR Protected: EU residents may have limited visible info
Pro Tip: Regularly check your domain's WHOIS information to ensure nameservers are correct and expiration dates are accurate. Set reminders before domains expire to avoid accidental loss.
