smarttripper.org

According to its WHOIS record, SMARTTRIPPER.ORG was created on March 15, 2013 and expires on March 15, 2018. That makes the domain about 13 years old. It is registered through GoDaddy.com LLC (IANA ID 146) and is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer, deletion and updates. The registrant is listed in Sri Lanka. DNS is served by ns75.domaincontrol.com and ns76.domaincontrol.com, which means its DNS is run by GoDaddy. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today.

Whois Data Center has 6 historical WHOIS snapshots for SMARTTRIPPER.ORG. The most recent capture is from December 9, 2017. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. 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. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked.
