Domain names in the .com and .net domains can be registered with many different competing registrars.
Use Global Whois to look up records in the registry database. Global Whois can provide information about domains, nameservers, and registrars.
Enter a string to search the WHOIS database. By default, Global Whois searches all record types for matches to your query for domain names, nameserver names, nameserver IP addresses, and registrar names.
The following keywords restrict a search to a certain field TYPE in the WHOIS database: domain Finds a domain record. Find out domain name, registrar name, whois server and URL, Nameserver name and IP Addresses, and updated date. For example, "domain netsol.com". nameserver Finds nameserver records. Find out nameserver name, registrar name, IP addresses, Whois Server name and URL. For example, 'nameserver DNS.SPRINTLINK.COM' or 'nameserver 101.198.1.101'. registrar Finds records for "registrar". Find out Registrar name, mail address, phone number and contact information. For example, 'registrar Network Solutions, Inc.'
