Answer:

What is Whois History?

Whois History is a powerful investigative tool, allowing you to “look back in time” to spot
significant changes in the ownership, hosting, registration, and other information about the
domain. It is one of the premium tools available to DomainTools subscription members.
DomainTools has been tracking the Whois history of millions of domains since the early 2000’s, with
some records dating back to their inception in the 1990’s. Advantages of the Domain History tool
include:
– Trademark and Copyright disputes can be resolved by viewing Whois History to see who owned the
domain at the time of the infringement.
– Domain transfers can be seen in detail to see who the previous owners of that domain were.
– Phishing and fraud sites can be shut down by contacting previous owners or viewing contact
information before it was privatized.
