What is blinds.com about?
The words appearing most often on the homepage, excluding common filler, are
a rough indication of subject matter rather than a description of the business:
- blinds ×13
- shades ×9
- design ×7
- free ×6
- save ×6
- starting ×6
- window ×5
- perfect ×5
- half ×5
- custom ×4
Does blinds.com publish the usual trust pages?
None of about, contact, privacy or terms could be found at their usual addresses.
That is common for small or single-purpose sites, and it is also what a disposable
site looks like, so it is worth noting rather than concluding from.
These were checked at conventional paths only, so a site using different URLs may
publish them elsewhere.

When was blinds.com registered?

| Registered | 25 July 1997 |
|---|---|
| Expires | 24 July 2027 |
| Registrar | CSC Corporate Domains, Inc. |
| Registry status | client transfer prohibited |
Where is blinds.com hosted?
The first address resolves to infrastructure in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
The network is operated by Akamai Technologies, Inc. (AS16625 Akamai Technologies, 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 blinds.com running on?
blinds.com exposes 2 identifiable technologies: Next.js, X-Powered-By: Next.js.
The build output indicates a server-rendered JavaScript framework, which means the HTML served to crawlers is generated ahead of time rather than assembled in the browser.
- Next.js
- X-Powered-By: Next.js
How does the homepage respond?
The server answered with HTTP 200 over
HTTPS.
At 442ms to first byte this response is unremarkable for a homepage measured from a single European location.
The HTML weighs 478KB, which is ordinary for a homepage.
The HTML is compressed with gzip.
| Server header | not disclosed |
|---|---|
| Compression | gzip |
| Page size | 489,070 bytes |
| Declared language | en |
| Mobile viewport | declared |
What does the homepage say about itself?
The title runs to 67 characters, so search results will truncate it and the end of the sentence will not be read.
A meta description of 152 characters is present.
1 of 85 images carry no alt attribute, which leaves them unreadable to screen readers and uninterpretable to image search.
| Title | Custom Window Coverings | Blinds, Shades, and Shutters | Blinds.com (67 chars) |
|---|---|
| Meta description | Blinds.com and our design consultants have you and your windows covered with custom blinds, shades, or shutters! DIY or Professional Services Available! (152 chars) |
| H1 | Custom Blinds, Shades, and Shutters for Every Project (1 on the page) |
| Canonical | https://www.blinds.com |
| Open Graph title | Custom Window Coverings | Blinds, Shades, and Shutters | Blinds.com |
| Headings / images | 8 H2s, 85 images (1 without alt text) |
Is blinds.com served over a valid certificate?
The HTTPS certificate is issued by DigiCert Inc and is
valid until 2027-01-05, which is 93 days from the date of this check. It covers
2 hostnames.
- *.blinds.com
- blinds.com
The certificate has 93 days left to run.
It covers 2 hostnames, so it was issued for this site specifically.
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.
Without HSTS, a browser that has never visited before will try HTTP first, which is the window a network attacker needs.
With no Content Security Policy, any script that reaches the page — including one injected through a compromised third-party dependency — runs with full access to it.
| Header | Set | Value |
|---|---|---|
| HSTS | no | — |
| Content Security Policy | no | — |
| X-Content-Type-Options | no | — |
| X-Frame-Options | no | — |
| Referrer-Policy | no | — |
| Permissions-Policy | no | — |

blinds.com resolves to a single address, so there is no DNS-level redundancy.
Mail is handled by 6 exchangers.
An SPF record is published, giving receiving servers a rule for which hosts may send as this domain.
Reverse DNS resolves to a23-197-130-246.deploy.static.akamaitechnologies.com, which usually names the hosting provider.
Who runs DNS and mail for blinds.com?
DNS is operated by Akamai rather than self-hosted name servers.
Mail exchangers point at hosts that do not match any major provider, which usually means self-hosted or niche-provider mail.
No AAAA records are published, so the site is reachable over IPv4 only.
What else is worth noting about blinds.com?
The server discloses software detail in x-powered-by, which tells an attacker what to target without them having to probe for it.
Can blinds.com be spoofed in email?
DMARC is set to reject, the strictest setting: mail that fails authentication is refused outright. This is the configuration that actually stops domain spoofing.
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?
robots.txt is 269 bytes and names
1 user-agent group.
It does not blanket-disallow general crawlers.
Sitemaps declared:
- https://www.blinds.com/sitemap.xml
AI crawler policy
robots.txt names no AI crawlers specifically, so they fall under whatever rule
applies to User-agent: *.
What structured data does the homepage publish?
No JSON-LD or microdata was found on the homepage.
What does blinds.com load from third parties?
The homepage pulls resources from 5 third-party hosts (assets.adobedtm.com, cdn1.affirm.com, images.prismic.io, paypalobjects.com, seal-houston.bbb.org). Each one sees the visitor IP and user agent on every page load.
No cookies are set on first load.
1 resource is referenced over plain HTTP on an HTTPS page, which browsers block or flag as mixed content.
The page links or refers to X/Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, GitHub.
Does blinds.com settle on one address?
Plain HTTP redirects to HTTPS, so visitors who type the bare address still land on the secure version.
Both blinds.com and www.blinds.com answer with 200 and neither redirects to the other. Search engines therefore see two complete copies of the site, and link equity is split between them unless a canonical tag resolves it.
How easily can blinds.com be crawled?
A sitemap is served at https://www.blinds.com/sitemap.xml listing 855 entries.
The most recent lastmod date is 2026-05-28.
A deliberately invalid URL correctly returns HTTP 404, so missing pages will not be indexed.
What tracking does blinds.com run?
No analytics or advertising trackers were detected on the homepage of blinds.com, which is unusual for a commercial site.
How does blinds.com look when shared?
3 of 5 social preview tags are set. Missing: og:image, og:type.
How are images, fonts and scripts handled?
85 images on the homepage, 49 of them lazy-loaded (58%).
Modern image formats are in use (293 WebP/AVIF references).
The page pulls 13 external stylesheets and 22 external scripts, with 21 carrying defer or async.
Responses carry Akamai edge headers, so content is served from a CDN rather than straight from the origin.
Is blinds.com accessible and current?
The page uses 5 landmark elements and 47 ARIA attributes.
There are 2 form inputs but only 0 label elements, so some fields may be unlabelled for screen readers.
No skip-to-content link was found, which keyboard users rely on to bypass navigation.
Can search engines index blinds.com?
Nothing on the homepage prevents indexing: no noindex is set in the robots meta tag or the X-Robots-Tag header.
The homepage carries 180 internal and 9 external links across 7 outside hosts.
Visible text is only 1.5% of the HTML, which indicates the page is assembled in the browser rather than served as content.
The heading outline skips 1 level, which breaks the document structure screen readers navigate by.
How is blinds.com delivered?
The HTML is served with Cache-Control: max-age=0, no-cache.
A web app manifest is declared, so the site is installable as a progressive web app.
Frequently asked questions
Does blinds.com set the usual HTTP security headers?
It sets 0 of 6. The ones not present are: HSTS, Content Security Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy.
Does blinds.com allow AI crawlers?
robots.txt names no AI crawler specifically, so they fall under the wildcard rule, which does not disallow them.
What is blinds.com built with?
The homepage exposes these fingerprints: Next.js, X-Powered-By: Next.js. A site behind a CDN or rendered server-side may use more than it reveals.
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 blinds.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.
