DomainTools is a leading provider of Whois and other related lookup services.[1] Alexa ranks DomainTools' traffic as one of the top 150 sites for U.S. visitors, top 100 for Indian users, and in the top 200 sites for global internet traffic.[2]

They are regularly involved in domainer events and policy meetings, such as ICANN meetings, the Domain Roundtable, DomainFest, and others.[3][4]

Services

DomainTools offers a myriad of services related to Whois searches and DNS lookup; These include:

  • Whois and Reverse Whois services
  • Whois History
  • Screenshot History
  • Hosting History
