It is registered through DROP.com.au Pty Ltd and is active. DNS is served by ns2.drop.com.au and ns1.abovedomains.com. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. 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. 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.
