cricinfo.com — domain analysis
cricinfo.com blocks automated analysis, answering with access denied page instead of its homepage. Its certificate, DNS and registration records are still readable and are reported below.
This site blocks automated analysis.
It answered our request with access denied page rather than its
homepage, so nothing below is derived from its actual content — doing so would describe
the bot wall, not the site. The certificate and robots.txt data are still accurate,
because those are served to everyone.

Analysed domains sharing the same network (AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc.):
Sharing a network means sharing a host or CDN. It implies nothing about a
relationship between the sites themselves.
When was cricinfo.com registered?
cricinfo.com was registered on 5 February 1999, which makes it about 27 years old.
A registration this old means the domain has been renewed repeatedly, which costs money every year and is not something abandoned or disposable projects tend to do.
The registrar of record is CSC Corporate Domains, Inc..
Registration runs until 5 February 2027.
The domain carries 4 registry locks, which blocks unauthorised transfer or deletion.
| Registered | 5 February 1999 |
|---|---|
| Expires | 5 February 2027 |
| Registrar | CSC Corporate Domains, Inc. |
| Registry status | client transfer prohibited, server delete prohibited, server transfer prohibited, server update prohibited |
Where is cricinfo.com hosted?
The first address resolves to infrastructure in Singapore, Singapore.
The network is operated by AWS EC2 (ap-southeast-1) (AS16509 Amazon.com, Inc.).
Hosting location describes where the responding server sits, not where the business is. A CDN will report its nearest edge rather than the origin.
What is cricinfo.com running on?
No platform, framework or analytics fingerprints were found in the homepage markup of cricinfo.com. That usually means hand-written HTML, an uncommon stack, or a page assembled entirely at the edge.
No recognisable platform, framework or analytics fingerprints were found in the homepage markup.
How does the homepage respond?
The server answered with HTTP 403 over
HTTPS.
At 857ms to first byte this response is slow for a homepage measured from a single European location.
No compression is applied to the HTML. Enabling gzip or brotli usually cuts transfer size by around two thirds at no cost to the server.
| Server header | AkamaiGHost |
|---|---|
| Compression | none |
| Page size | 370 bytes |
| Declared language | not declared |
| Mobile viewport | not declared |
What does the homepage say about itself?
The homepage has no title element at all, which leaves search engines to invent one from the page content.
There is no meta description, so the snippet shown in search results is assembled by the search engine from whatever text it considers relevant.
No H1 heading was found, so the page offers no single top-level statement of what it is.
No viewport meta tag is declared, so mobile browsers will render the page at desktop width and scale it down.
The html element declares no lang attribute, which removes a signal both screen readers and translation tools rely on.
| Title | — none — (0 chars) |
|---|---|
| Meta description | — none — (0 chars) |
| H1 | — none — (0 on the page) |
| Canonical | not set |
| Open Graph title | not set |
| Headings / images | 0 H2s, 0 images (0 without alt text) |

Which security headers does it set?
None of the 6 headers checked are set. That is the default state of most servers rather than evidence of a problem, but it means the browser is given no instructions it could otherwise act on.
| Header | Set | Value |
|---|

cricinfo.com resolves to 2 addresses, which indicates load balancing or a CDN rather than a single origin server.
Mail is handled by 1 exchanger.
An SPF record is published, giving receiving servers a rule for which hosts may send as this domain.
Reverse DNS resolves to ec2-52-74-41-219.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com, ec2-56-10-33-97.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com, which usually names the hosting provider.
Can cricinfo.com be spoofed in email?
DMARC is published with p=none, which monitors but does not act. Forged mail is still delivered; the owner just gets reports about it.
No CAA records are published, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for this domain.
The zone is not DNSSEC-signed. That is still the norm for most domains, but it means DNS answers cannot be cryptographically verified.
What does robots.txt allow?
No robots.txt was served. Crawlers treat a missing file as permission to crawl
everything, so this is an open crawl policy by default rather than a blocked one.
What structured data does the homepage publish?
No JSON-LD or microdata was found on the homepage.
Frequently asked questions
Does cricinfo.com allow AI crawlers?
No robots.txt is served, so nothing is disallowed and AI crawlers are free to read the site.
Where does this data come from?
Every figure was measured by our own server on 4 October 2026: DNS lookups, one HTTPS request to the homepage, a TLS handshake and a request for robots.txt. No third-party SEO API is involved.
Is any of this traffic or authority data?
No. Traffic, authority and ranking figures cannot be measured by inspecting a domain, only modelled. Everything here is a direct observation.
I own cricinfo.com and want this page removed.
Ask through the contact page on this site, from an address at the domain, and the report will be taken down. It only ever shows what the domain already serves publicly.
