WHOIS Lookup, WHOIS IP, and WHOIS Domain Information
All registered domain names have an entry in a central database containing the personal contact information of the domain registrant. This database is known as the WHOIS database, and it is required by ICANN that all domains have valid information for WHOIS search.
It is important to have valid information in the WHOIS lookup because it is needed to conduct domain name transfers, it is used by law enforcement for criminal investigations, and by the public to determine when a domain expires and how to contact the domain name owner.
WHOIS IP Address
WHOIS IP address lookups determine the location and the owner of a particular IP address. That is not handled by domain registrars and is independent of the domain WHOIS database. Services such as ARIN WHOIS can provide information about IP addresses.
WHOIS Lookup
The eNom WHOIS lookup includes contact information for a domain, DNS information, relevant dates for a domain name including its creation and expiration, and registrar information that can be found through a WHOIS search.
In addition, eNom also offers WHOIS domain products such as private registration and business listings to allow you control over your domain WHOIS lookup.
Public Whois
Public Whois includes all personal information that is supplied with a domain registration and is placed in a database for anyone to find with a Whois search. Spammers, scammers, and advertisers routinely search for this information by Whois lookup to target people for their campaigns and phony offers. It is also possible for anyone online to find private contact information with Whois search.
ID Protect
ID Protect blocks contact information from appearing in Whois search so that it is not possible for malicious third parties to perform a Whois lookup to obtain the private information of a domain registrant. ID Protect greatly reduces spam and keeps the identity of a domain owner safe. Learn more
Business Listings
Business Listings makes Whois search work for you. Business Listings returns information about your business in a Whois lookup so that potential customers can learn more about your business directly in the Whois search. Use it in conjunction with ID Protect to refer the public to your business instead of to your private contact information. Learn More
