coolbackgrounds.io

We performed a comprehensive analysis of coolbackgrounds.io on 2026-06-28. The website returned an HTTP 200 status code with a server response time of 13472ms. The page is served over HTTP/2 protocol, however no compression (Gzip or Brotli) is enabled, which means the page is transferred at its full uncompressed size. The total page weight is 90 KB, and the site is served behind a CDN (Content Delivery Network). Warning: The website does not have a valid SSL certificate. Visitors may see security warnings in their browser, and data transmitted to and from this website is not encrypted. The security headers analysis reveals a score of 0/100 (poor). No security headers are configured, which is a significant security concern. However, the site is missing Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, and Permissions-Policy, which could expose the site and its users to cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking, and other web-based attacks. Our technology detection scan identified 5 technologies across 5 categories powering coolbackgrounds.io. The detected stack includes Next.js media, React, Webpack, Google Analytics 4, and GitHub Pages. The site uses Next.js as its primary framework (version media). The UI is built with React. Based on our comprehensive analysis of domain age, SSL configuration, email authentication, security headers, and blacklist status, coolbackgrounds.io receives an overall trust score of 53/100, classified as "Caution Advised".

After conducting a thorough safety and legitimacy analysis, coolbackgrounds.io receives a trust score of 53/100, which places it in the "Caution Advised" category. This score is calculated by evaluating multiple factors including SSL certificate validity, domain registration history, email authentication protocols, security header configuration, and blacklist status across major threat intelligence databases. The analysis identified several positive trust signals: a valid HTTPS connection protecting data in transit. Areas of concern include: the absence of a Content-Security-Policy header, which leaves the site more vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, no X-Frame-Options header, which could allow the site to be embedded in malicious iframes (clickjacking), missing Referrer-Policy, potentially leaking URL information to third parties, the domain's WHOIS information is hidden behind a privacy service, making it harder to verify the owner's identity, and DNSSEC is not enabled, leaving DNS queries vulnerable to spoofing attacks. While these issues don't necessarily indicate malicious intent, they represent areas where the website's security posture could be improved. We checked coolbackgrounds.io against 8 major blacklist databases including Google Safe Browsing, Phishtank, Urlhaus, Openphish, Dnsfilter, Spamhaus Dbl, Surbl, and Virustotal. The domain passed all 8 checks with a clean status, meaning it has not been flagged for phishing, malware distribution, spam, or other malicious activities by any of the tested threat intelligence providers.

Our technology detection engine scanned coolbackgrounds.io and identified 5 distinct technologies across 5 categories.

UI Library: React — handles the user interface rendering and component management for coolbackgrounds.io. Build Tool: Webpack — bundles and optimizes the JavaScript and CSS assets for coolbackgrounds.io. Analytics: Google Analytics 4 — tracks visitor behavior and provides traffic insights for coolbackgrounds.io. Hosting: GitHub Pages — provides the server infrastructure for coolbackgrounds.io. We also extracted the following tracking identifiers: Google Analytics 4 Measurement ID G-WFSDQJP5L7. These IDs can be used to identify other websites operated by the same organization.

coolbackgrounds.io delivers its homepage in 13472ms (server response time), which is considered slow by industry standards. The total page weight is 90 KB, and we detected 71 resource requests loading assets from 25 third-party domains. A high number of third-party domains can significantly impact page load time due to additional DNS lookups and TLS handshakes required for each domain. No compression is currently enabled on coolbackgrounds.io. Enabling Brotli or Gzip compression could reduce page size by 60-80% for text-based assets (HTML, CSS, JavaScript), significantly improving load times and reducing bandwidth costs. This is one of the simplest and most impactful performance optimizations available. Asset minification status: 0 out of 1 CSS files and 0 out of 10 JavaScript files are minified. Minifying the remaining 11 unminified file(s) could further reduce page weight by 10-30% for those assets. Minification is a best practice that reduces download sizes without affecting functionality. The site is served through a Content Delivery Network (CDN), which caches static assets at edge servers around the world. This means visitors from different geographic regions receive content from the nearest edge server, significantly reducing latency. CDN usage is particularly important for websites with a global audience, as it can reduce page load times by 40-60% for distant visitors. From an environmental perspective, each page view of coolbackgrounds.io produces approximately 0.04g of CO₂, earning a carbon rating of A. This places the website among the cleanest on the web, demonstrating efficient use of server resources and optimized content delivery. For reference, the average web page produces about 0.5g of CO₂ per page view. The page weight of 90 KB is the primary factor in this calculation. Core Web Vitals data from the Chrome User Experience Report (CrUX) is not available for coolbackgrounds.io. This typically means the site doesn't have enough real-world Chrome user traffic to generate statistically significant field data, or the domain is not included in the CrUX dataset. Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) are important Google ranking factors that measure real user experience.

coolbackgrounds.io resolves to the IPv4 address 3.164.206.89, but does not support IPv6. IPv6 adoption is increasingly important as IPv4 address space becomes exhausted, and some ISPs and regions are transitioning to IPv6-only connectivity. The domain has 4 A record(s) configured. The domain name system is managed by 4 name servers: ns-1212.awsdns-23.org, ns-1896.awsdns-45.co.uk, ns-316.awsdns-39.com, and ns-921.awsdns-51.net. Having 4 name servers provides good redundancy — if one fails, the others can continue serving DNS queries. The choice of name servers often indicates the DNS hosting provider or CDN service being used. Email for coolbackgrounds.io is handled by Google Workspace with 1 MX records configured: smtp.google.com. Multiple MX records provide failover redundancy — if the primary mail server is unavailable, email will be routed to the next available server. SPF is not configured, meaning any server could potentially send emails pretending to be from this domain. This is a significant email security concern. DMARC is not configured, leaving the domain vulnerable to email spoofing and phishing attacks that impersonate this domain. DKIM was not detected. Without DKIM, recipients cannot cryptographically verify that emails claiming to be from this domain are authentic. DNSSEC is not enabled for coolbackgrounds.io. While not critical for most websites, DNSSEC adds an important security layer by ensuring DNS responses haven't been tampered with during transit. Enabling DNSSEC is recommended for domains handling sensitive data or financial transactions.
