According to its WHOIS record, SONOMALAW.INFO was created on September 13, 2001 and expires on September 13, 2023. That makes the domain about 25 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 United States. DNS is served by ns52.worldnic.com, ns100.worldnic.com, ns99.worldnic.com and ns51.worldnic.com. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. 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. 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. 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. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations.

Whois Data Center has 10 historical WHOIS snapshots for SONOMALAW.INFO. The most recent capture is from November 13, 2022. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars. 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. 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. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time.

In the period from October 9, 2022 to November 13, 2022, 3 fields of the record were modified. Status flags were updated: clientUpdateProhibited was added and autoRenewPeriod was removed. Each change listed here can be checked against the original snapshots further down the page.
