According to its WHOIS record, SKULLSPARKS.COM was created on January 11, 2016 and expires on January 11, 2023. That makes the domain about 10 years old. It is registered through Hosting Concepts B.V. dba Openprovider (IANA ID 1647) and is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer. The registrant is listed in United States. DNS is served by ns1.superb.net, ns2.superb.net, ns3.superb.net and ns4.superb.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. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry.

Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. 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. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale.
