GoDaddy Whois

It does not matter whether you are trying to purchase a domain or want to learn more about a person that owns a particular adult website; you need to get acquainted with WHOIS. Who is…or what is…umm, WHOIS? Think of it like the address book on your phone, except for websites. The WHOIS of a website tells everything that you need to know about a website, right down to the owner’s e-mail address (unless they have chosen to make this kind of information private).

Getting this information may seem like it’s going to be ridiculously hard. I’m here to tell you, my dear adult entrepreneur, that it’s the opposite of hard. No, not soft like you. But rather, acquiring WHOIS information is so fucking easy, you’re going to wonder, ‘wait, is that it?’

It’s all thanks to GoDaddy.com/WHOIS. Although there are other sites you can use to get the WHOIS information for a website, nobody simplifies it better than GoDaddy. It’s how GoDaddy rolls, so visit them to get the WHOIS info you need to make informed decisions about your brand.

Easy to find out who knows a site

Even if you have never heard of WHOIS and are looking for the ‘WhatIs’ in your confusion, GoDaddy.com/WHOIS will show you what it’s all about. As soon as you visit the site, you are alerted to enter a domain name then choose search. This will show you the laundry list of information that is provided in a WHOIS search. Don’t be exhausted when you see the information, either.

Even if you don’t know what you are looking at, take the time to go through the list and see what you can find. You will see details such as the last date the site was updated, domain status, state and country where the site was registered, and more. If the privacy options are not hidden, you can even see their e-mail address to learn more about the domain.

And that’s the thing. If you want to learn more about who owns a particular domain, GoDaddy.com/WHOIS makes it happen. You can learn everything you need to know to reach out to them and make your inquiry. If you have never done this before, you may not know why you need to reach out to a site owner anyway. It turns out; there are all kinds of reasons why contacting someone that owns a domain is in your best interest. The most obvious reason is when you want to purchase a domain name that is already taken.

Want to purchase a registered domain?

Have you ever thought of an awesome domain name, only to find that it is currently registered to someone else? This bullshit happens all the time! If this happened to you, you probably passed on the domain and tried to find another that wasn’t nearly as good as the original. That fucking sucks too, because coming up with the perfect name for your brand’s name isn’t just difficult: it could mean the difference between success and failure.

People remember brand names and domain names that are simple and straightforward. If you have to settle for a name that can be confusing to remember, you’re not going to have the success you were hoping for. Think about it. How much easier is it to remember the brand/domain name ‘GiveMeThePussy.com’ versus ‘GimmeThePussyTodayTomorrowForever.com’ that you may have to settle for? You know the answer.

Instead of settling for less, why not purchase the domain name that you want? GoDaddy.com/WHOIS shows you exactly who owns the domain name, so you reach out to them and learn more about the domain. Now, you may run into a problem. Because WHOIS databases like on GoDaddy.com/WHOIS are operated by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), domain owners can choose to hide their identity. When this happens, you will notice that personal information like their e-mail address and address are hidden from view.

A lot of times, this is usually a sign that they are not willing to sell. At least, not yet. Many times though, if you can see all of an owner’s personal information down to their address and e-mail address, that’s a sure-fire sign that they were at least open to selling the domain. This is not always the case, but it’s the first thing interested buyers typically do when they want to sell a domain.

Another sign that the domain owner is thinking about selling their domain is the ad stating ‘this domain name is available through GoDaddy Auctions.’ If the domain name is for sale on GoDaddy Auctions, this ad will be present. You will see a Go link below the ad that allows you to make an offer to the seller. Once you do that, the hard part is over! Just wait for them to respond or counter your offer, and the buying process can go from there.

If you cannot find an e-mail address, physical address, or phone number for the owner, visit their domain name and make an inquiry that way. GoDaddy.com/WHOIS is awesome in that it points you in the right direction toward an owner. But it cannot do the hard work for you. That’s all on you.

Use GoDaddy.com/WHOIS to find infringement on copyright and trademark

If you become a successful adult entrepreneur (and I have no doubt that you will with me by your side), you will find that there are others out there that want to copy your success. It has happened to me, and that’s fucking fine. I’m the original ThePornDude, mother fuckers; ain’t nobody recreating my magic!

Sometimes, this results in outright theft. It sounds brazen, but there are dip shits out there that will steal your assets, trademarks, copyrights, and the unique items that make your brand and site, well, yours. It’s the same as someone making a 1:1 full-body suit of yourself, then walking around and introducing the public as yourself. That would be creepy as fuck, but that’s what happens when you essentially have your identity stolen.

Make no mistake: your site is your brand’s identity! You need to protect it. When you notice that something that precious has been stolen, you need to track the culprit down. That begins with GoDaddy.com/WHOIS.

Once you have the domain name that is behind the thievery, plug the domain name into GoDaddy.com/WHOIS. Once you start going through the details, you will notice details that you can use to fight back. For example, if their physical address and e-mail address is not private, you can send the offender a cease and desist letter using one of the many lawyer resources out there. Not only is GoDaddy.com/WHOIS ideal for purchasing a registered domain, but you can also use it to fight back against those that are trying to undercut your bottom line.

No bullshit Web design

You have to give it to GoDaddy. They know how to take concepts that seem foreign to the laymen and simplify them. They changed the fucking game when it comes to creating a website. So much so that basically anyone can create a website in an afternoon and have it up and running without much effort.

The same can be said about how they approach searching WHOIS records. Indeed, figuring out how to use WHOIS directories and what the information all means can be daunting. There are plenty of sites that can show you the WHOIS information, but most of the sites can be confusing if you don’t know what you are looking at, what to look for, or what WHOIS means anyway.

GoDaddy.com/WHOIS does not play that game. When you first log onto the site, you will see the option to enter a domain name. In less than a second, you already know what to do and how to find the WHOIS information that you need. There are no bullshit ads, no bizarre tabs to confuse you. Just a field where you can check WHOIS info followed by a few graphics that show you what kind of information that you can uncover.

I have to say; I wish every site was as straightforward and to-the-point as GoDaddy.com/WHOIS. It would make browsing the Web so much easier. Finding the information you require wouldn’t be a hassle. Oh well, we can dare to dream. Until then, use GoDaddy.com/WHOIS whenever you need to find key information about who owns a domain name. Make your move, you smart adult entrepreneur!

Suggestions:

GoDaddy.com/WHOIS is one of the easiest ways to acquire good information about who owns a domain. You can use the information to send an offer about buying a domain, track down sites committing copyright/trademark infringement, and more. As long as the site remains clean, they do not need to change a thing.
