According to its WHOIS record, ASKPORTIA.COM was created on February 9, 2006 and expires on February 9, 2024. That is around 20 years of continuous registration. It is registered through TUCOWS INC. (IANA ID 69) and is past its expiry date. The registrant country on record is Canada. DNS is served by ns640.websitewelcome.com and ns639.websitewelcome.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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. 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. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. 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. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself.
In the period from February 18, 2018 to February 16, 2023, 12 fields of the record were modified. The domain moved from Tucows Domains Inc. to TUCOWS INC.. The same nameservers stayed in place, only their order changed. It was renewed: the expiry date went from February 9, 2019 to February 9, 2024. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.
For ASKPORTIA.COM, Whois Data Center keeps 8 historical WHOIS snapshots. The most recent capture is from February 16, 2023. 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. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. 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. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected.
