According to its WHOIS record, STARFISHSAMPLER.COM was created on March 18, 2001 and expires on March 18, 2026. That makes the domain about 25 years old. It is registered through GoDaddy.com; LLC (IANA ID 146) and is past its expiry date. DNS is served by ns05.domaincontrol.com and ns06.domaincontrol.com, which means its DNS is run by GoDaddy. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. 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. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. 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. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider.
Whois Data Center has 2 historical WHOIS snapshots for STARFISHSAMPLER.COM. They run from October 1, 2016 to August 11, 2025. Together they cover about 8 years of registration history. 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. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed.
