TAOGUGU.COM dates back to February 8, 2010; its registration is valid until February 8, 2023. That makes the domain about 16 years old. Alibaba Cloud Computing (Beijing) Co. Ltd. (IANA ID 420) manages the name, which is past its expiry date at the moment. The registrant is listed in China. Its nameservers are dns10.hichina.com and dns9.hichina.com. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. 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. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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. 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. 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 7 historical WHOIS snapshots for TAOGUGU.COM. The newest snapshot was taken on March 31, 2022. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. These records help track changes in registration details, ownership signals and DNS over time. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time.
