Finding old registration information ...

[pam]

I need a bit of help. I'm trying to find contact information for the original contacts on 2 different domains. Both businesses have gone under and the domains are listed under the domain registry selling them. I'd like the original contact information in the hopes of tracking down a few deadbeats ...

Go to Alexa.com
Because Alexa takes ages to update, chances are the info for the name still shows the old owner.
I've tried it several times and in like 80% the info had not been updated yet.

If I could have children, you'd have my first born as thanks

I'd never heard of alexa.com (boy, do I feel stupid) but I was able to get information on one of the 2 sites I searched.

I also began looking at MY own sites, saw some amazing reviews, plus am now correcting some misinformation that's there.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

If you were still looking for information on the other site, there's a paid historical WHOIS search available, via Dialog. See:

Good luck!
