dnshosting.net

The domain DNSHOSTING.NET was first registered on May 13, 1998 and its current term runs until May 12, 2020. Its age is about 28 years. Its sponsoring registrar is Vautron Rechenzentrum AG (IANA ID 1443), and the domain is past its expiry date. The registrant is listed in SWITZERLAND. DNS is served by ns2.dnshosting.net and ns1.dnshosting.net — it runs its own DNS. 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. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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.

We have collected 4 historical WHOIS snapshots for DNSHOSTING.NET. The most recent capture is from April 3, 2020. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. 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. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. 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. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time.
