How to know about a domain's history? - rudla25 - 07-29-2019

You know that the domain has been on the red flag list or not? Whether or not it being penalized in the past. I am talking about a recent expired domain which is getting auctioned.

This one mostly does it. Apart from this if you are starting a new site then as you are a beginner I will suggest that you start with a new domain. Its easier to start from scratch first.

Truth to be told. Its not a switch which you can flip and tell that this domain is good and that one is bad. It takes time and close observations to become an expert on domains.

To explore a domain's history, you can utilize SEMRush for SEO analysis, Who. is for ownership information, Wayback Machine snapshots, and Google Searches for public records and news. Furthermore, Domain Tools offer in-depth WHOIS records. At the same time, HosterStats shows hosting history and WhoIs Request, which shows detailed ownership changes - providing a comprehensive view of its past history. These tools offer a holistic view of domain history.

Checking a domain's history before buying it is an intelligent way to avoid problems down the road. By using WHOIS, the Internet Archive, Ahrefs, and Google, you can get a good idea of what a domain has been used for in the past and who has owned it.
