Domain Age Checker

About This Tool

So, you’re curious about how old a website really is? Maybe you’re thinking of buying a domain, or you’re just suspicious of that “established 2005” site that somehow looks like it was built last Tuesday. That’s where a domain age checker comes in—simple, no-nonsense, and oddly satisfying to use. It’s not magic. It’s just a tool that looks up when a domain was first registered. Think of it like checking the birthdate on a fake ID. Some sites brag about being around forever, but the truth? Often buried in a WHOIS record most people never bother to check. I’ve used these tools for years—mostly to avoid sketchy domains, sometimes just to settle arguments in the office. They’re fast, usually free, and way more useful than you’d think. No login, no tracking, just paste the URL and get the facts.

FAQ

Why does domain age matter?
It doesn’t always. But older domains can have an edge in SEO, and they’re often more trustworthy. Scammers tend to use fresh domains and ditch them fast. If a site’s only been alive for three months and claims to be a 20-year expert? Yeah, I’m side-eyeing that.

Can the age be faked?
Not really. The registration date is public record. You can’t change it. What you can do is buy an old domain that’s been sitting unused. So age isn’t everything—just one piece of the puzzle. Still, it’s a quick way to spot red flags.
