THRIFTOLOGY.COM dates back to June 1, 2006; its registration is valid until June 1, 2027. That makes the domain about 20 years old. ENOM, INC. (IANA ID 48) manages the name, which is active at the moment. The registrant is listed in United States. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. 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. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS 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. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details.

Whois Data Center has 10 historical WHOIS snapshots for THRIFTOLOGY.COM. The newest snapshot was taken on October 31, 2026. 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. 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. 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. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains.

The record was updated in 32 fields between October 11, 2022 and October 31, 2026. The registrar name was reformatted from "ENOM INC." to "ENOM, INC.", which is the same registrar. Status flags were updated: clientTransferProhibited was removed. The expiry date moved from June 1, 2024 to June 1, 2027, which shows the domain was renewed.
