Registered on January 31, 2023, KKS231.COM is paid up until January 31, 2024. This gives it about 3 years of history. Xin Net Technology Corporation (IANA ID 120) is the registrar of record, and the domain is currently past its expiry date. The registrant country on record is China. Its nameservers are ns1.huaweicloud-dns.com and ns1.huaweicloud-dns.cn. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. 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. 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.
