    Why Choose Pakalfa?

    The Standard in Domain Intelligence

    We provide more than just a lookup. We provide the insights you need to secure your digital assets.

    Ownership Verification

    Validate the legitimacy of any online business. Check who is really behind a website before you buy or partner.

    Expiry Monitoring

    Don't lose your domain. Check accurate expiration dates down to the second to ensure timely renewals.

    Real-Time RDAP

    We don't use cached data. Our tool connects directly to the registry via RDAP for 100% real-time accuracy.

    Understanding the Domain Life Cycle

    Knowing what happens when a domain expires is crucial for both domain owners and investors looking to snap up dropped domains. Here is the typical lifecycle of a gTLD (like .com):

    1
    Active Status

    The domain is registered and functioning normally. It can be renewed at any time during this period.

    2
    Expiration Date

    The date the domain contract ends. The website may go offline, but the owner can still renew it immediately.

    3
    Grace Period (0-45 Days)

    Most registrars allow renewal at the standard price without penalty. The domain is "parked" by the registrar.

    4
    Redemption Period (30 Days)

    The domain is deleted from the registrar but held by the registry. Recovery is possible but expensive (often $100+).

    5
    Pending Delete (5 Days)

    The domain cannot be recovered or renewed. It is about to be released to the public.

    6
    Available for Registration

    The domain is released to the general market. Anyone can register it as a new domain.

    How to Read WHOIS Results

    Confused by the technical jargon? Here is a simple breakdown of the most important fields.

    Registrar

    This is the company where the domain was bought (e.g., Pakalfa, GoDaddy, Namecheap). If you need to report abuse, contact them.

    Registrant

    The individual or organization that owns the domain. Often "Redacted for Privacy" to protect personal data.

    Name Servers (NS)

    These point to the hosting provider. For example, ns1.pakalfa.com tells you the site is hosted with Pakalfa.

    Domain Status

    Codes like clientTransferProhibited mean the domain is locked and safe from unauthorized transfers.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Absolutely. You can perform unlimited domain checks without any cost, subscription, or hidden fees. We believe in transparent internet data for everyone.

    Due to GDPR and privacy protection services, personal contact details of the domain owner are often redacted. If you want to hide your data, ensure you have "WHOIS Privacy Protection" enabled with your registrar.

    If the email is redacted, look for a "Registrar Abuse Contact" email or a link to a contact form in the raw WHOIS data. Some privacy services forward email sent to the proxy address (e.g., pw-123@privacy.com) to the real owner.

    RDAP (Registration Data Access Protocol) is the modern, secure replacement for WHOIS. It returns data in a standardized format (JSON) and supports internationalization. Pakalfa uses RDAP for the most accurate results.
