DNS Records Checker

Introduction:

A DNS Records Checker is a tool used to verify and analyze the Domain Name System (DNS) records of a website. DNS records act as the backbone of internet communication, it allows domain names (like freeseotools.webssite) to  convert into IP addresses so that computers can connect to servers. By using a DNS records checker, you can ensure these records are set up correctly and helping to prevent connectivity issues and maintain your website’s performance.

What is DNS?

DNS stands for Domain Name System, IP Adresses are difficult to remember by users so all the users on internet use a human readable and rememberable name called Domain. DNS is like the "phonebook of the internet." It allows users to access websites, using easy-to-remember domain names instead of numerical IP addresses. For example, when you type freeseotools.website, DNS translates it into an IP address like 142.250.64.110, which computers use to connect to servers.

Common Issues Detected by DNS Records Checkers:

Missing A or AAAA Records:

Prevents a domain from connecting to its web server, making the website inaccessible.

Incorrect MX Records

Results in email delivery failures.

Expired or Misconfigured SSL Certificates

Causes email delivery failures, as emails can’t reach the intended server.

Missing or Incorrect SPF, DKIM, or DMARC Records

Increases the risk of email spoofing or phishing.

Propagation Delays

DNS changes may not reflect globally due to incorrect TTL settings.

Types of DNS Recored:

A Record (Address Record):

An A Record (Address Record) is a fundamental DNS record used to map a domain name (e.g., example.com) to its corresponding IPv4 address (e.g., 192.168.1.1).

AAAA Record (IPv6 Address Record):

An AAAA Record (pronounced "quad-A record") is a type of DNS record used to map a domain name (e.g., example.com) to an IPv6 address. It is similar to A Recored but it is IPv6 address and previous is IPv4 address.

CNAME Record (Canonical Name Record):

A CNAME Record (Canonical Name Record) is a type of DNS record used to create an alias for another domain name.

MX Record (Mail Exchange Record):

An MX Record (Mail Exchange Record) is a type of DNS record responsible for directing email messages to the appropriate mail server for a given domain.
