According to its WHOIS record, ARTPHOTO.COM was created on August 1, 1996 and expires on July 31, 2023. That is around 30 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 ns2.infostreet.com, ns1.infostreet.com and ns3.infostreet.com. 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. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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. 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.

In the period from July 14, 2022 to August 23, 2022, 26 fields of the record were modified. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.

For ARTPHOTO.COM, Whois Data Center keeps 16 historical WHOIS snapshots. The most recent capture is from August 23, 2022. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. 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.
