According to its WHOIS record, SPEAKWINEGEEK.COM was created on November 7, 2015 and expires on November 7, 2017. That makes the domain about 11 years old. It is registered through register.com Inc. (IANA ID 9) 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.bluehost.com and ns2.bluehost.com. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. 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. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. 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. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider.

Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. 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. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked.
