How to Tell the History of a New Domain

by Ducksauce

Posted: 13 years ago 10 replies

I have new domain that I have found out that it is not a virgin domain, it had a previous life many years ago.

I want to see what was on it. I is not listed in the Way Back Machine, is there a way with a paid service like SeoMOZ or something like that?

What you need is "Wayback machine" - Internet Archive: Wayback Machine.

It tells you if a domain already exist before and also shows you how it look from inception and also every changes it has undergone.

Way Back Machine is a good suggestion and I've used them
often over the years. Their results are a bit patchy so I
wouldn't take the information as 100% gospel but it's
certainly a good indicator.

  Then it may not have had any significant content, or perhaps it was simply parked?

not sure what your mean. You want check the domain is in the blacklist or not, is it?
No worry about it. most of time, the registrar, and domain owner information changed, google will reindex this website, but need longer observation compared with other domain.

Maybe its a parked domain that's why your website is not in Way Back Machine.

I guess this one is just parked site. the domain was created year ago with no contents and non marketed site. I also use majestic seo but they use the same platform as way back machine. I suggest you contact the server of the Domain. that will give you an exact and accurate info about your site.
