What is a domain checker, and why is it important?
A domain checker is a tool that runs a full analysis to provide clear insight into your domain’s configuration, authentication, and reputation.
Whether you’re responsible for email infrastructure or overall cybersecurity, using a domain checker is essential. It helps you:
Improve domain reputation
Identify misconfigurations that affect how other systems view your email domain.
Ensure email authentication
Confirm that your DNS records are correctly set up for Sender Policy Framework (SPF), DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), and Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC).
Boost cybersecurity
Detect risks or vulnerabilities that could expose your organization to phishing and spoofing attacks.
By regularly checking your domain, you gain visibility into issues that could otherwise remain hidden until they impact your business. Even a small misconfiguration can have big consequences, such as legitimate messages landing in spam or your brand being exposed to impersonation. A domain check gives you peace of mind by turning complex DNS and authentication data into a clear action plan.
Note: You might also see this tool referred to as a domain analysis tool or email domain checker.

- DKIM record presence and accuracy

What is domain analysis?
Domain analysis is the process of examining a domain’s DNS records, authentication protocols such as Sender Policy Framework (SPF), DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), and Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC), as well as its online reputation. The goal of the analysis is to assess the domain’s overall security and trustworthiness.

How often should I run a domain check?
You should run a domain check after every major DNS change. It is also recommended to perform an analysis at least once a month for continuous visibility and protection.
Are domain checker tools free?
