Frequently Asked Questions
Does domain age affect SEO?▼
Domain age itself is not a direct Google ranking factor, but older domains often have accumulated more backlinks, content, and trust signals over time. A new domain can still rank well with quality content and good SEO practices.
How old should a domain be to rank well?▼
There is no minimum age requirement to rank well. New domains can rank within weeks or months with quality content. However, very new domains (under 6 months) may experience a "sandbox" effect where rankings are temporarily suppressed.
What is WHOIS?▼
WHOIS is a public database that stores registration information for domain names, including the registrant, registrar, creation date, expiration date, and name servers. It is maintained by domain registries and registrars worldwide.
Can I check when a domain was first registered?▼
Yes, WHOIS records include the creation date which shows when the domain was first registered. However, if a domain has been dropped and re-registered, the creation date reflects the most recent registration.
