According to its WHOIS record, SITELYNXTEST.NET was created on December 15, 2016 and expires on December 15, 2023. That makes the domain about 9 years old. It is registered through NetEarth One Inc. (IANA ID 1005) and is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer. The registrant is listed in United States. DNS is served by ns2.railsplayground.net and ns1.railsplayground.net. 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. 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. 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. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again.
Whois Data Center has 8 historical WHOIS snapshots for SITELYNXTEST.NET. The most recent capture is from January 30, 2023. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains.
