Whois Lookup


  What is a domain whois lookup?

A domain WHOIS lookup is a process of querying a public database to retrieve information about a registered domain name. When someone registers a domain name, they are required to provide contact information such as their name, address, email address, and phone number. WHOIS lookups are commonly used for various purposes such as checking the availability of a domain name, identifying the owner of a domain, investigating potential trademark infringements, or resolving technical issues related to domain registration. However, some domain registrars offer privacy protection services that allow domain owners to hide their personal contact information from WHOIS queries, replacing it with proxy contact details provided by the registrar.
