When you want to check who registered a particular domain name, you can perform a "WHOIS" lookup. This will allow you to lookup all data available in the pubic domain records. You can find the owner and thedetails of the domain.
One of the places where you can perform a domain name look up is at www.whois.org. All you have to do is input the domain and search.
These are the details you will find:
- Who provided the registration service for the domain name.
- Who registered the domain name.
- The administrative contact of the domain name.
- The technical contact of the domain name.
- The status of the domain name.
- The domain name servers used.
- The date of creation of the domain name.
- The expiration date of the domain name.
This information will give you the details of a specific domain name. However the registration service provider can choose to limit the data released into the public domain for security reasons like to limit competition or stop spam.
Thinking of buying a new domain name. I recommend Godaddy for this purpose. Check out Godaddy.
