The domain POPT.ORG was first registered on January 28, 2014 and its current term runs until January 28, 2018. That makes the domain about 12 years old. Its sponsoring registrar is GoDaddy.com LLC (IANA ID 146), and the domain is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer, deletion and updates. The registrant is listed in Canada. DNS is served by ns05.domaincontrol.com and ns06.domaincontrol.com, hosted with GoDaddy. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself.
Whois Data Center has 4 historical WHOIS snapshots for POPT.ORG. The most recent capture is from December 10, 2017. 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. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed.
