CTX700-FORUM.COM was registered on February 19, 2013, and is set to expire on February 19, 2018. Its age is about 13 years. The domain is managed by Domain.com LLC (IANA ID 886) and is past its expiry date. It carries protection against transfer and updates. The registrant is listed in Canada. It uses the nameservers gail.ns.cloudflare.com and mark.ns.cloudflare.com, which means its DNS is run by Cloudflare. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. 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. 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.
