According to its WHOIS record, MEKONGFLOWS.ORG was created on January 21, 2011 and expires on January 21, 2019. This gives it about 15 years of history. It is registered through GoDaddy.com LLC (IANA ID 146) and is past its expiry date. Unauthorised transfer, deletion and updates are prevented by its status flags. The registrant country on record is New Zealand. DNS is served by ns1.dreamhost.com, ns2.dreamhost.com and ns3.dreamhost.com. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. 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. 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. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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.

In the period from October 23, 2016 to December 9, 2017, 2 fields of the record were modified. It was renewed: the expiry date went from January 21, 2017 to January 21, 2019. Scroll down to see the full current record and the complete list of historical snapshots.

The Whois Data Center archive contains 5 historical WHOIS snapshots for MEKONGFLOWS.ORG. The most recent capture is from December 9, 2017. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars.
