advocate.nz

The domain ADVOCATE.NZ was first registered on October 4, 2014. That is around 12 years of continuous registration. The domain is active. DNS is served by ns1.ezi.co.nz and ns2.ezi.co.nz. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. 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. 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. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes.

In the period from August 5, 2022 to August 6, 2022, 4 fields of the record were modified. Status flags were updated: ACTIVE was added. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.

For ADVOCATE.NZ, Whois Data Center keeps 6 historical WHOIS snapshots. The most recent capture is from August 6, 2022. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected.
