2.7 - How do I know where a domain name is registered, or who owns it?

You can determine the registrar and registrant, and often the reseller, of any domain name by doing a public WhoIs lookup on it. This also shows the initial date of registration, the expiration date, and the Nameservers.

Some WhoIs search sites that we often use are:

XWhois (select "WhoIs" on the left-side menu, put the domain in the text bar underneath)

CentralOps (choose "Domain Dossier")

Please keep in mind that Internet Names for Business is not affiliated with those WhoIs sites, and that the information on a WhoIs lookup may be incorrect. For absolutely correct information please log in to the domain management interface.
