Current facts
Latest available measurements; dated entries retain their dates. These are measurements, not an endorsement of the site.

Domain registered Sep 26, 2000 — 26 years old.
latest result
Registrar on record: Webnames.ca Inc. — unchanged since AboutUs began tracking (Nov 5, 2026).
We withhold an authority number until independent evidence (global rank, link-graph presence) has accrued. The facts we do have about this site are shown below — we'd rather say “not enough signals yet” than invent a low score.
Safety evidence
No unexpired threat-feed result; name-similarity check available (recorded about 80 days ago); 3/3 transport and email checks available (oldest recorded about 80 days ago). This is evidence coverage, not a probability that a website is safe.
