According to its WHOIS record, A-MA-TA.NET was created on January 14, 2014 and expires on January 14, 2024. That is around 12 years of continuous registration. It is registered through Network Solutions LLC (IANA ID 2) and is past its expiry date. Status flags block unauthorised transfer. The registrant country on record is United States. DNS is served by ns93.worldnic.com and ns94.worldnic.com. Nameservers decide where a domain's DNS is hosted, so a change of nameservers usually means the website or email moved to a new provider. Renewals are usually made for one to ten years at a time, so an expiry date far in the future shows a long-term commitment to the name. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services.
In the period from April 2, 2020 to April 16, 2022, 26 fields of the record were modified. It was renewed: the expiry date went from January 14, 2021 to January 14, 2024. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.
For A-MA-TA.NET, Whois Data Center keeps 8 historical WHOIS snapshots. The most recent capture is from April 16, 2022. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars.
