According to its WHOIS record, AKINAI.COM was created on January 14, 1999 and expires on January 14, 2018. That is around 27 years of continuous registration. It is registered through OnlineNIC Inc. (IANA ID 82) and is past its expiry date. Status flags block unauthorised transfer. The registrant country on record is Japan. DNS is served by ns1.xserver.jp and ns2.xserver.jp. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry.

In the period from July 25, 2016 to September 26, 2017, 4 fields of the record were modified. DNS moved from ns1.dsredirection.com and ns2.dsredirection.com to ns1.xserver.jp and ns2.xserver.jp.

For AKINAI.COM, Whois Data Center keeps 5 historical WHOIS snapshots. The most recent capture is from September 26, 2017. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. 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. 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.
