Question 1

Where does the data come from?

Accepted Answer

We query RDAP — the modern, structured replacement for WHOIS — served by the domain's own registry. It's the same registration record registrars use, returned as clean JSON.

Question 2

Why does domain age matter?

Accepted Answer

Older domains tend to carry more trust with search engines and spam filters. When you're buying an expired domain or vetting a directory before submitting, the registration date is the first thing to check.

Question 3

What if no registration date shows?

Accepted Answer

Some TLDs — especially newer or country-code ones — don't expose registration dates via RDAP. That doesn't mean the domain is unregistered, just that the registry doesn't publish the date.
