BOSTONVPS.NET dates back to December 16, 2011; its registration is valid until December 16, 2027. That is around 14 years of continuous registration. ENOM, INC. (IANA ID 48) manages the name, which is active at the moment. The registrant country on record is United States. 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. 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. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. 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. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations.

The record was updated in 35 fields between January 31, 2023 and November 1, 2026. Only the spelling of the registrar name changed ("ENOM INC." to "ENOM, INC."); it is the same registrar. Status flags were updated: clientTransferProhibited and autoRenewPeriod were removed. It was renewed: the expiry date went from December 16, 2023 to December 16, 2027.

For BOSTONVPS.NET, Whois Data Center keeps 16 historical WHOIS snapshots. The newest snapshot was taken on November 1, 2026. 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. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale.
