  • Technical questions
  • I would like to have support for a domain extension that is not currently included. Can you do this?
    We have included support for all of the domain names that currently have an official public whois server that we are aware of. We have also added support for a number of popular domains that only provide access to whois information via their webiste. To do this we have written functions that can interogate their website automatically. If you need support for any other domain extension please let us know and we will see what can be done.
