Nice work from and thanks to , and for the early thumbs-up. The tool concept is still useful, but a few important changes since the original posts mean some outputs need fresh interpretation. Below are concise, practical notes to help anyone checking domains today.

Many legacy metrics either disappeared or became unreliable. Google’s public Toolbar PageRank was turned off and the 1–10 scores are no longer available to webmasters. Amazon’s Alexa ranking service was retired (data/API shut down in 2022). Early search engines commonly queried by old checkers—like AltaVista and AllTheWeb—have been discontinued for years. Treat those figures as historical context, not current authority signals. (Search Engine Land article). (searchengineland.com) (BleepingComputer on Alexa retirement). (bleepingcomputer.com) (AltaVista history, AlltheWeb history). (en.wikipedia.org)

Registrant data and whois-style output also changed. GDPR and ICANN policy updates moved public registration data toward redaction and the modern RDAP protocol; ICANN’s global amendments set a formal WHOIS sunset timeline, so many registrant fields are masked or available only via controlled requests. Use registrar RDAP endpoints or the registrar’s contact forms for authoritative registration details. (). ()

Practical, up-to-date checklist: verify the domain in Google Search Console for authoritative index and coverage data; add it to Bing Webmaster Tools for Bing-specific signals; use commercial link indices (Ahrefs, Majestic, Moz) for backlink profiles; consult the Wayback Machine for history; run Google Safe Browsing and malware checks for safety. Treat third-party “index counts” and legacy ranks as approximations and base critical decisions on verified Search Console / webmaster-tool data instead. (Google Search Console overview). (search.google.com)

Short, focused checks like these prevent relying on obsolete signals and make the tool output useful for real decisions.
