Whois Lookup

Free, no account. Tell us where the result should go, type the code from the email, and the check runs.

What it checks

Dates

Created, updated and expires, plus the age in years and days.

And

Registrar and status

Who manages the name and the status codes (locks, holds, pending delete).

Also

Nameservers

Where the domain's DNS is hosted, which often reveals the web host too.

How to read the result

What to do with it

  • An expiry within 60 days is a risk worth a reminder.
  • clientTransferProhibited is normal; clientHold means the domain is not resolving.
  • Older domains carry more trust in search, though age alone ranks nothing.

The registry's public record, read live over the RDAP and whois protocols and kept for a day.
