Name servers interrogation (Whois)

Obtain information about a domain name and its owner :

Some details :

Each domain name is recorded on one or more name server(s).

For legal reasons depositor's information and possibly the technical contact is freely consultable via the databases of WHOIS of the name servers, which enables you to check the legal depositor of the domain name.

The Whois also enables you to check the availability of a domain name, because if no name servers returns information this one is probably free.
