According to its WHOIS record, MEDIALINK.COM was created on November 27, 1996 and expires on June 1, 2027. This gives it about 29 years of history. It is registered through Amazon Registrar, Inc. (IANA ID 468) and is active. The owner organisation on record is Identity Protection Service from United Kingdom. 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.
In the period from December 10, 2022 to May 6, 2026, 37 fields of the record were modified.
