CNAME Checker

Trace the complete DNS CNAME resolution chain.

What is a CNAME Checker?

A CNAME Checker is a tool used to verify and analyze CNAME (Canonical Name) records in a website’s DNS configuration. A CNAME record maps one domain or subdomain to another domain name, allowing multiple domain names to point to the same server or service. When you enter a domain into a CNAME checker, it looks up the DNS records and shows whether a CNAME exists and which domain it points to. This is useful for troubleshooting domain configurations, verifying third-party service connections, and ensuring the DNS setup is working correctly with providers such as Cloudflare or hosting services from Amazon Web Services.
