A domain's age refers to the length of time a web address has been registered and active. Our Domain Age Checker looks up public WHOIS records to show you when a domain was first registered, its expiration date and how long it has existed in years, months and days.
Knowing how old a domain is can help you assess its credibility and value. Older domains often carry more trust with search engines and users because they have had more time to build a reputation and backlinks. If you’re researching a company, checking the domain age can reveal whether it’s a long‑standing business or a newly registered site. When buying a domain, age can also influence pricing and SEO potential.
To use the Domain Age Checker:
1. Enter the full domain name (for example, example.com) into the input box.
2. Click the button to look up the WHOIS data.
3. The tool will display the domain’s registration date, expiration date and calculated age in years, months and days.
4. Review the results to decide if the domain meets your needs.
In addition to website purchases, domain age can be a factor in SEO strategy. Search engines sometimes view older, well‑maintained domains as more authoritative. However, age alone doesn’t guarantee rankings—quality content and backlinks still matter most.
FAQs
What is domain age?
Domain age is the amount of time that has passed since a domain name was first registered. It is calculated from the registration date to the current date.
Why does domain age matter?
Older domains may have more trust and authority because they have existed longer, accumulated backlinks and demonstrated stability. Checking the age helps you evaluate a domain’s credibility and SEO potential.
How accurate is the Domain Age Checker?
Our tool uses publicly available WHOIS data. The results are as accurate as the records provided by the domain registrar. Some registrars hide or mask registration dates, which may limit accuracy.
Can I check any domain extension?
You can check most top‑level domains (TLDs), such as .com, .net, .org and many country code domains. However, certain registries restrict access to full WHOIS data.
Is there a cost or sign‑up required?
No. The Domain Age Checker is free to use and doesn’t require registration.
