According to its WHOIS record, AFFORDABLEWEBDESIGN.COM was created on August 12, 1997 and expires on August 11, 2023. That is around 29 years of continuous registration. It is registered through Google LLC (IANA ID 895) and is past its expiry date. Status flags block unauthorised transfer. The registrant country on record is United States. DNS is served by ns-cloud-b1.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-b3.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-b4.googledomains.com and ns-cloud-b2.googledomains.com, which means its DNS is run by Google. 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. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. 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. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again.
In the period from July 14, 2021 to February 16, 2023, 29 fields of the record were modified. The domain moved from Google Inc. to Google LLC. The same nameservers stayed in place, only their order changed. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.
For AFFORDABLEWEBDESIGN.COM, Whois Data Center keeps 10 historical WHOIS snapshots. The most recent capture is from February 16, 2023. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website.
