Find Out How Old a Domain Is

Enter a domain name or paste any URL to see when the domain was first registered, its exact age in years, months and days, when it expires, and which registrar manages it. The data comes live from the domain's registry over RDAP, or WHOIS where a registry has no RDAP service.

When Domain Age Is Useful

Buying a domain: confirm a seller's claims, and spot domains that expired and were re-registered
Vetting a website: a shop or sender on a days-old domain deserves extra caution
Link outreach: get a quick sense of how long a site has been around
Renewals: check when your own domains expire

Does Domain Age Affect SEO?

Not directly. Google has said domain age is not a ranking factor. Older sites often rank well because they have had longer to earn links and publish content, so treat age as context, not as a score to chase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Domain age is the time since the domain was first registered, taken from the registration date in the registry's RDAP or WHOIS record. It does not reset when the domain is renewed, but it does reset if the domain expires and is registered again by someone else.

Not directly. Google has said domain age itself is not a ranking factor. Older domains often rank well because they have had more time to earn backlinks and build content, not because of the date itself.

Yes. Paste any URL or subdomain and the tool looks up the registered domain it belongs to, so blog.example.com is checked as example.com.

DENIC, the registry for .de, does not publish registration dates in its public records, so no tool can read the age of a .de domain from the registry. A few other country registries also withhold the date.

A domain that looks old but was registered recently may have been dropped and re-registered, which means its history and backlinks may not carry over. Comparing the registration date with the seller's claims helps you spot that.
