Frequently Asked Questions
Does domain age help SEO?
Not directly. Google has said age by itself is not a ranking factor. Older domains often rank better because they gathered content and links over time.
What is RDAP?
RDAP is the official replacement of WHOIS. It gives registration data in a modern, structured way.
Why can I not see the owner name?
Registries and registrars hide personal details to protect privacy. Only technical information is public.
Why does it say no registration record found?
The domain may not be registered, or its extension (some country codes) does not offer public RDAP data.
Can the date be wrong for an old site?
If a domain expired and was registered again, the date shows the new registration, even if the website is older.
Is it free?
Yes. It is free with no signup.
