A question that I have had for the longest time, is how do you know how old a domain really is (for this example, .com will suffice)?
Sometimes you can do a whois, but say that the domain has moved registrars, registrants and maybe even gone into the "redemption" period...how can you tell the age?
Also, what if a domain was dropped and then picked-up again a year later...is there any record anywhere of it originally being registered the year before (other than perhaps the Internet History machine, etc.)?
Let me know your insight please!
