Domain Age Checker
Check when a domain was registered and how old it is — useful for SEO research, due diligence, and fraud detection.
About Domain Age Checker
Domain age is a significant factor in SEO (older domains generally have more accumulated authority), fraud detection (newly registered domains are frequently used for phishing and scams), business due diligence (verifying claimed business history), and competitive research. This tool uses RDAP (Registration Data Access Protocol), the modern successor to WHOIS, to retrieve accurate domain registration timestamps from authoritative registrars.
FAQ
Does domain age affect SEO?
Indirectly yes. Google has confirmed that domain age itself is a minor ranking factor. More importantly, older domains typically have more backlinks, content, and authority built up over time — which do affect rankings significantly. A brand new domain with excellent content can outrank an old, neglected domain relatively quickly.
