UGOTABUY.COM was registered on December 4, 2013, and is set to expire on December 4, 2016. It is roughly 12 years old today. The domain is managed by GoDaddy.com LLC (IANA ID 146) and is past its expiry date. Locks are in place against transfer, deletion and updates. The registrant country on record is United States. It uses the nameservers ns41.domaincontrol.com and ns42.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. 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. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. 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. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry.
Between April 17, 2014 and October 6, 2016, 30 fields of the record changed. Only the spelling of the registrar name changed ("GODADDY.COM; LLC" to "GoDaddy.com LLC"); it is the same registrar. It was renewed: the expiry date went from December 4, 2014 to December 4, 2016. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.
