Check a single domain
The Quick Domain Check box — modes, what the result shows, and re-checking saved domains.
The quickest way to ask "is this name free?" or "who owns this?" is the Quick Domain Check box at the top of the Radar page.
Run a check
- Open app.norcube.com → DomainRadar.
- Type the domain into the check box.
- The button next to the input shows the current mode
(Availability by default); the dropdown arrow switches between:
- Availability Check — "Quick check if the domain is registered".
- Verified — "DNS/RDAP/WHOIS-verified availability, 0% false positives".
- Basic Info — "Registrar, registration, update, and expiry date".
- Full WHOIS/RDAP — "Complete WHOIS/RDAP data including raw response".
- Run the check.
When to pick which mode — and what each costs — is covered in Check modes.
Reading the result
- A green banner — "This domain is available!" — or a red one — "This domain is not available."
- Available domains get a Register on Namecheap link (what that does).
- Basic Info / Full results add a detail panel: availability, the method that answered, registrar, created / last-updated / expiry dates — and for Full, the raw RDAP response (pretty-printed JSON) and raw WHOIS response, each with a Copy button.
- Every result has a star — one click adds the domain to Saved Domains with this result attached.
Re-check a domain later
Saved domains carry their last result, which goes stale. On the Saved Domains page (and the saved-domains card on Radar), each row has a Recheck button that opens a mode-picker dialog — "Choose the check mode for this domain." — and runs a fresh check. The row updates with the new result.
Rate limits
Single checks are limited to 600 per hour per organization and
200 per hour per user; beyond that you'll get a 429 — see
Limits and errors. Anything that
would bump into those limits belongs in a
bulk check anyway.
When to pick which mode
- Checking a candidate name for a launch — Availability or Verified; ownership data doesn't matter yet.
- Investigating a suspicious domain — Full: you want the raw record.
- Triaging a Brand Monitor detection — the hit already includes registration data from its automatic enrichment; go Full only if you need the raw responses.
- Checking a whole list — bulk check, always.
