What does a DNS lookup show?
A DNS lookup lists the public records that tell the internet where your domain lives — address records (A/AAAA), mail exchangers (MX), name servers (NS), aliases (CNAME) and text records used for SPF, verification and other services. If mail or a website suddenly breaks after a domain change, comparing these records to what you expect is usually the fastest first step.
Why do Melbourne businesses check DNS?
Local teams often juggle registrars, Microsoft 365 and web hosts. A five-minute DNS check confirms the live records match the intended setup before you chase the wrong vendor. Keep a screenshot of a healthy baseline so the next outage is easier to diagnose.
