Domain Age Checker API — Registration Age Lookup

Description

Calculate the exact age of a domain from its WHOIS/RDAP registration date. Returns age in years, months, and days along with the original creation date.

Domain age is a key trust signal — older domains generally have more authority and are less likely to be used for spam or phishing.

Use Cases

Assess domain trustworthiness — newly registered domains are higher risk
SEO analysis — domain age is a ranking signal
Phishing detection — very young domains are suspicious
Due diligence for domain purchases
