How to Find Your Domain Provider: A Step-by-Step Guide
A domain provider (or registrar) is the company that hosts your custom domain name. Finding your domain provider is essential for managing your domain, setting up email services, and connecting it to website builders.
Here are the most reliable methods to find your domain provider:
Use ICANN Lookup Tool
- Visit ICANN's lookup website
- Enter your domain name
- Click Search
- Look for "Registrar" and "Registrar URL" in results
Check Your Domain Dashboard
- Log into your website builder or hosting platform
- Navigate to the Domains section
- Look for "Provider" or "Registrar" information
For Former Google Domains Users All Google domains have been transferred to Squarespace. Access them by:
- Logging into Squarespace with your Google Domains email
- Checking the Domains dashboard
- Updating billing information if needed
For Squarespace Domain Users Two types of registrations exist:
- Squarespace Domains LLC
- Tucows (as a reseller)
Check your specific provider by:
- Opening the Domains dashboard
- Clicking on your domain
- Looking for the provider name at the top
What to Do After Finding Your Provider Once identified, you can:
- Transfer or connect domains to other services
- Set up email services
- Configure DNS settings
- Contact support for account assistance
Remember: The registrar listed in WHOIS records might be different from your actual provider if you used a reseller service.
For domain management, always log in through your provider's official website or contact their support directly for assistance.
