知道谁拥有某个网站不是很好吗？以前，我写过如何找出谁在托管网站，但这只会告诉您服务器的位置。如果您想验证域名的所有者或^{(domain name)}查看域名何时到期（以便您可以购买），那么执行WHOIS 查询^{(WHOIS lookup)} 是可行的方法。

如果您在Google中执行WHOIS搜索，您会得到一堆结果，但通常第一个是 whois.net。通过访问www.whois.net，您不仅可以了解某个域名^{(domain name)}的所有权人，还可以了解该域名的购买时间，更重要的是可以了解该域名的到期时间。

在 www.whois.net 上查找域名^{(domain name)}非常简单。您所要做的就是输入您要查找的网址并进行预置——您想要的所有信息都会出现。^{(web address)}例如，如果您查找WHOIS 网站^{(WHOIS site)}的网址^{(website address)}，您会发现一些重要信息。在下面的屏幕截图^{(screen shot)}中，我们可以看出该域名^{(domain name)}是在 1997 年购买的，并且他们已经支付了 2018 年的费用（所以很快就想从他们下面买下它，但运气不好！）。

虽然当您想要查找有关其他人网站的信息时，WHOIS是一个很好的参考，但如果反过来，它可能会成为一个问题。^(WHOIS)在购买域时甚至之后，大多数公司都会提供私人注册福利^{(registration benefit)}，该福利将删除有关所有者的任何个人信息。

我最近做了一个实验，我购买了两个新的域名^{(domain name)}，并使用格式 info^{(format info)} @domainname.com为每个域名^{(domain name)}设置电子邮件帐户。然后我让我的个人信息显示在其中一个站点的 www.whois.net 上，并为另一个站点购买了安全功能^{(security feature)}。（注意：安全功能^{(security feature)}会显示第三方的信息，而不是您自己的信息，如下所示的Domains By Proxy的信息。）^(Proxy)

第一个网站向公众展示了我的所有信息，在发布信息后 1 周内开始接收垃圾邮件。^{(spam mail)}然后，即使几周后我通过购买隐私包^{(privacy package)}删除了信息，我仍然继续在原始电子邮件地址上收到^{(email address)}垃圾邮件^{(junk mail)}。

但是，第二个站点的电子邮件帐户^{(email account)}中没有收到任何垃圾邮件^{(junk mail)}。虽然这可能是巧合，但我强烈建议您在注册新域名时使用^{(domain name)}隐私功能^{(privacy feature)}，以降低收件箱中充满垃圾邮件^{(junk mail)}的风险。此外，它只是将您的个人信息保密，这更好，因为这些天所有东西^{(everything and anything)}都被黑客入侵了。

我真正喜欢的另一个站点是来自DomainTools的^{(DomainTools)}WHOIS 查询^{(WHOIS lookup)}。进行WHOIS 查询^{(WHOIS lookup)}时，您获得的信息比从WHOIS.NET获得的信息多得多。

除了通常的信息之外，您还会获得一些额外的数据，例如服务器类型^{(server type)}、SEO 分数^{(SEO score)}、HTTP 响应^{(HTTP response)}代码、托管历史、注册商历史、IP 历史^{(IP history)}等。历史项目都需要您支付订阅费^{(subscription fee)}，但即使不付费，您也可以获得有关该域的大量信息。享受！

How to Find Out Who Owns a Website or Domain

Wouldn’t it be nicе to know who owned a certain website? Previously, I wrote about how you can find out who is hosting a website, but that only tells you where the server is located. If you want to verify the owner of a domain name or see when one expires (so that you can purchase it), performing a WHOIS lookup is the way to go.

If you perform a search in Google for WHOIS, you’ll get a bunch of results, but normally the first one is whois.net. By visiting www.whois.net, you can not only find out who owns a certain domain name, but also when it was purchased and more importantly, when it is due to expire.

Looking up a domain name on www.whois.net is very simple. All you have to do is enter in the web address you want to look up and presto – all the information you wanted will appear. For example, if you look up the website address for the WHOIS site, you will find out some important information. In the screen shot below, we can tell that the domain name was purchased in 1997 and they have paid for it through 2018 (so no luck trying to buy it out from under them anytime soon!).

While WHOIS is a great reference for when you want to find information about someone else’s website, but it can be a problem when it’s the other way around. When purchasing a domain or even afterwards, most companies provide a private registration benefit that will remove any personal information about the owner.

I recently did an experiment where I purchased two new domain names and set up email accounts for each domain name using the format [email protected]. I then let my personal information be displayed on www.whois.net for one of the sites and purchased the security feature for the other site. (Note: The security feature displays a third party’s information instead of your own, like the one for Domains By Proxy shown below.)

The first site, with all of my information displayed to the public, started receiving spam mail within 1 week of posting the information. Then, even when I removed the information a couple weeks later by purchasing the privacy package, I still continued to receive junk mail on the original email address.

The second site, however, has not received any junk mail in its email account. While this could be a coincidence, I would strongly advise using the privacy feature whenever you register a new domain name to reduce the risk of receiving an inbox full of junk mail. Also, it just keeps your personal information private, which is better since everything and anything is being hacked these days.

One other site that I really like is the WHOIS lookup from DomainTools. When you do a WHOIS lookup, you get a lot more information than you do from WHOIS.NET.

In addition to the usual info, you get some extra data like the server type, SEO score, HTTP response code, hosting history, registrar history, IP history and more. The history items all require you to pay a subscription fee, but even without paying, you get a great deal of info about the domain. Enjoy!
