Hosting Checker

Free, no signup. See which public network and edge platform a domain exposes — and the specific DNS or response-header evidence for it.

Checks run from our server; we fetch the URL you enter and don't keep the results. This queries public DNS and makes one public web request. A CDN or reverse proxy can hide the origin provider; this tool never treats edge evidence as proof of the origin. Anonymous run-level outcome counters may be used for aggregate research; URLs, domains, IPs, and identifiers are never included, and no statistic is released below 100 runs.

Sample report

Illustrative example — fixed public signals, not a domain lookup

Cloudflare is proxying this site; the origin host is not visible from this public check.

  • Evidence: server: cloudflare and cf-ray were present.
  • IP & network: the displayed addresses belong to the public edge network.
  • DNS & mail: an MX answer is listed separately and is not called the web host.
  • Transfer: Content-Encoding: br means Brotli was observed on this response.

How to use it

  1. Enter a bare domain such as example.com.
  2. Choose Check hosting and read the delivery verdict with its evidence.
  3. Separate the observed IP network, CNAME, and response-header fingerprints from the mail-host MX records.
  4. If a proxy is detected, treat the origin as unknown unless you can verify it through your own account or configuration.

How to read the result

  • Delivery verdict summarizes the strongest supported edge or ASN evidence.
  • Origin not visible means a proxy or edge platform terminates the public request.
  • IP network is the ASN organization for the observed A/AAAA address, not necessarily the hosting brand.
  • CNAME and MX are raw public DNS answers; MX describes email.

Data sources & freshness

The endpoint performs bounded public A/AAAA, CNAME, and MX lookups and one web request. Team Cymru ASN DNS data enriches observed IPs with network organization, registry, and country. A deterministic fingerprint table checks selected headers and CNAMEs for supported edge platforms, while transfer inspection reports compression and only documented protocol hints.

Features

  • Public IP, ASN, CNAME, and MX evidence in one report.
  • Supported CDN and edge fingerprints from DNS and headers.
  • Compression and protocol-hint summary.
  • Explicit distinction between delivery network, origin host, and mail host.

Limitations

A Cloudflare, Fastly, or similar result describes the public edge and may conceal the origin. ASN country is not a physical server location. Private DNS, multi-CDN routing, geographic answers, reseller relationships, and infrastructure without a supported fingerprint can make the picture incomplete.

Frequently asked questions

Can a hosting checker identify the origin host behind Cloudflare?

Usually not. A reverse proxy publishes its own edge IPs and headers while deliberately hiding the origin. The checker reports Cloudflare as the delivery layer and leaves the origin unclaimed.

Is the reported country the server location?

No. Country and registry values come from public ASN data for the observed IP network. They are not proof of the physical datacenter, origin server, or where site data is stored.

Why does the tool show a CDN instead of my web host?

Public DNS and HTTP requests terminate at the CDN or edge proxy when one is configured. That is the infrastructure visible to visitors; the underlying host may not expose a public fingerprint.

Does the MX record show who hosts the website?

No. MX records describe mail delivery. The report lists them separately because email and web hosting are often provided by different companies.

Sobre a ferramenta

Encontrar o público rede, CDN, proxy, cabeçalhos, DNS registros, e mail host associated com um domain — com o evidência behind cada conclusion.

Como usar Enter um bare domain such como example.com . Escolha Verificação hosting e leitura o delivery verdict com seu evidência. Separate o observado IP rede, CNAME, e response-header fingerprints de o mail-host MX registros. If um proxy é detected, trate o origin como unknown unless você pode verifique isso por seu own account ou configuração.

Recursos

  • Features Público IP, ASN, CNAME, e MX evidência em um relatório. Compatível CDN e edge fingerprints de DNS e cabeçalhos. Compression e protocol-hint summary. Explicit distinction entre delivery rede, origin host, e mail host.
  • Dados origens & freshness O endpoint performs limitado público Um/AAAA, CNAME, e MX lookups e um web solicitação. Team Cymru ASN DNS dados enriches observado IPs com rede organization, registry, e country. Um determinístico fingerprint tabela verificações selecionado cabeçalhos e CNAMEs para compatível edge platforms, enquanto transfer inspeção relatórios compression e somente documentado protocolo hints.
  • Como para leitura o resultado Delivery verdict summarizes o strongest compatível edge ou ASN evidência. Origin não visible means um proxy ou edge platform terminates o público solicitação. IP rede é o ASN organization para o observado Um/AAAA address, não necessarily o hosting brand. CNAME e MX são raw público DNS answers; MX describes email.

Limitações

  • Limitations Um Cloudflare, Fastly, ou similar resultado describes o público edge e pode conceal o origin. ASN country é não um physical servidor location. Privado DNS, multi-CDN routing, geographic answers, reseller relationships, e infrastructure sem um compatível fingerprint pode make o picture incompleto.
  • Não. Country e registry values come de público ASN dados para o observado IP rede. They são não prova de o physical datacenter, origin servidor, ou onde site dados é armazenado.

Perguntas frequentes

Pode um hosting verificador identify o origin host behind Cloudflare?

Usually não. Um reverse proxy publishes seu own edge IPs e cabeçalhos enquanto deliberately hiding o origin. O verificador relatórios Cloudflare como o delivery layer e leaves o origin unclaimed.

É o reported country o servidor location?

Não. Country e registry values come de público ASN dados para o observado IP rede. They são não prova de o physical datacenter, origin servidor, ou onde site dados é armazenado.

Por que faz o ferramenta mostrar um CDN em vez de my web host?

Público DNS e HTTP solicitações terminate em o CDN ou edge proxy quando um é configured. Que é o infrastructure visible para visitors; o underlying host pode não expose um público fingerprint.

Faz o MX registro mostrar quem hosts o site?

Não. MX registros describe mail delivery. O relatório lists them separately porque email e web hosting são often provided por different companies.
