What WHOIS search do you use?

[Raf]

I thought I'd ask this question, I'm pretty sure it was probably posted in the past but I'd like to get people's opinions on whois websites they use these days.

I'll start off, it depends what kind of information I need to get but usually I use InterNIC's Whois search (http://www.internic.net/index.html). The reason I like it is because of its simplicity, I usually use it to check if nameservers of my domains had been changed properlly. Unfortunately though it doesn't retrieve contact info.

To check the current contact info for my domains I use Whois Source (http://www.whois.sc). It's pretty simple to use and I haven't had any problems ever using it.

So what about you guys, share your experiences! :hehe:

Yup, I use my own. However the site is being reworked. But the WHOIS can be used here: http://www.dnwhois.net/whoistest.php

I mostly use NamePros' WHOIS service :tu::

Other than that, I use Whois.SC after a long time of Register.COM.

Thanks :] !

I use whois.net and whois.sc

I use whois.sc too, but lately it has been telling me domains are available and when I go to checkout, put all my information in, it says it is unavailable.

Anyone else have this problem?

Interesting to get all these suggestions from all of you, looks like use whois.sc. Something that I didn't know until now. :tu:

 

[Scott]

whois.sc and whois.net (when whois.sc is too slow).
