Discover where any website is hosted. Find server location, IP address, and hosting provider details instantly.
1 free lookup available
Our free Domain Location Finder tool performs a real-time DNS lookup to find the IP address associated with a domain name. It then cross-references this IP address with global geolocation databases to pinpoint the physical server location, hosting provider, and network infrastructure.
Find the city and country where a website's server is physically located.
Identify which hosting company or cloud provider is powering the website.
Detect if the site uses Content Delivery Networks like Cloudflare or Fastly.
Most domain location tools only check IP geolocation databases—which often shows CDN edge servers instead of actual hosting infrastructure. Our tool goes deeper with dual-source verification:
This dual approach means when you check a site using Cloudflare, we don't just tell you "it's on Cloudflare"—we show you the CDN layer AND identify the DNS management setup, giving you the complete picture of how the domain is configured.
Verify deployment configurations, check if CDN propagation is complete, and debug DNS issues by seeing exactly where traffic is being routed.
Server location affects page speed and regional rankings. Check competitor hosting setups and identify opportunities to improve your own infrastructure.
Investigate suspicious domains, identify hosting patterns across phishing campaigns, and map out infrastructure for threat intelligence.
Discover what technology stack competitors use. Identify their hosting provider, CDN choice, and DNS management to inform your own decisions.
Our domain hosting checker uses DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) for all queries, ensuring fast, private, and accurate results. Unlike traditional DNS tools that may return cached data, we query authoritative nameservers in real-time through Cloudflare's and Google's DoH endpoints.
For each lookup, we perform:
Enter any domain name in the search box above. Our tool will perform a DNS lookup to find the IP address, then cross-reference it with geolocation databases to show you the server location, hosting provider, and network details—all in seconds.
Many websites use CDNs (Content Delivery Networks) like Cloudflare or Fastly to serve content from edge servers worldwide. The IP address resolves to the nearest CDN node, not the origin server. Our tool detects this and shows you both the CDN information and the actual DNS provider managing the domain.
The hosting provider is where the server physically runs (AWS, DigitalOcean, etc.). The DNS provider manages where traffic gets routed—this could be your registrar, a dedicated DNS service like Cloudflare, or a platform like Vercel. A site might be hosted on AWS but use Cloudflare for DNS management.
We perform real-time DNS queries (not cached data) and cross-reference multiple data sources. IP geolocation is typically accurate to the city level for data centers. Our nameserver detection uses pattern matching against known DNS providers, ensuring accurate identification of services like Vercel, Cloudflare, AWS Route 53, and more.
Yes, you can look up any publicly accessible domain. The tool works with any TLD (.com, .io, .dev, country codes, etc.). It won't work for internal/private domains or domains that don't have public DNS records.
We measure the round-trip time for the DNS resolution request. Faster times (under 50ms) indicate well-optimized DNS infrastructure. Slower times might suggest DNS propagation issues or geographically distant nameservers.
