SPF record syntax explained
Every SPF mechanism and qualifier, with examples, and how to stay under the 10-lookup limit.
Check, understand and fix your domain
One input runs every check: DNS and DNSSEC, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, BIMI and mail transport, TLS, HTTP security headers, registration and performance. Every finding is explained in plain language and comes with the exact record or configuration to fix it.

Query, validate and troubleshoot DNS records for any domain.
DNSDNS LookupQuery any DNS record type for a domain and compare authoritative and resolver answers.DNSDNS Health CheckerAudit a domain's DNS configuration for missing records, delegation problems and common misconfigurations.DNSDNS Propagation CheckerSee what a range of public resolvers return for a record and understand any lag between them.DNSDNSSEC CheckerValidate the DNSSEC chain of trust from the root to your zone and explain any broken link.DNSCAA Record CheckerCheck which certificate authorities are allowed to issue for your domain and spot missing or conflicting records.
Check and build SPF, DKIM, DMARC, BIMI and mail delivery records.
EmailMX LookupList the mail servers for a domain, confirm they respond, and check whether they offer STARTTLS.EmailSPF CheckerValidate your SPF record, visualize the include tree and count DNS lookups against the 10-lookup limit.EmailDKIM CheckerFind and validate DKIM public keys by trying common selectors or the one you provide.EmailDMARC CheckerRead your DMARC record, explain every tag, and say what the published policy does and does not ask receivers to do.EmailBIMI CheckerCheck your BIMI record and logo, and whether your DMARC policy meets the prerequisites.EmailMTA-STS CheckerValidate your MTA-STS DNS record and policy file so inbound mail cannot be downgraded to plain text.EmailTLS-RPT CheckerCheck whether your domain publishes a TLS-RPT record so you receive reports about failed secure mail delivery.EmailSMTP TLS CheckerConnect to a mail server and check STARTTLS support, certificate validity and the negotiated protocol.EmailEmail Header AnalyzerPaste raw email headers to see the delivery path, hop delays, authentication results and phishing red flags.
Security
All security tools →Inspect TLS certificates, HTTP security headers and exposed ports.
SecuritySSL CheckerInspect the TLS certificate chain, expiry, protocols and cipher suites of any host and get a grade.SecuritySecurity Headers CheckerCheck HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options and cookie flags, with copy-paste fixes for common servers.SecurityPort CheckerCheck which of 21 common TCP ports answer on a host you run, and what each open one exposes.
Test HTTP behavior, redirects, speed, SEO markup and the site's technology.
WebHTTP Header CheckerView the full request and response headers for any URL, including caching, compression and server details.WebRedirect CheckerFollow every redirect hop with status codes, timing and headers, and spot loops and chains.WebDomain Health CheckRun every DNS, email, TLS and web security check in one go and get a single grade with a plain-language fix list.WebWebsite Speed TestSee what real Chrome visitors experience, and which bytes on one page load are worth removing.WebSEO CheckerCheck one page's indexability, canonical, metadata, headings, structured data, robots.txt and sitemap.WebTechnology LookupIdentify the CMS, framework, server, CDN and analytics a site discloses, with the evidence for each.
