wxycandles.co.uk

We performed a comprehensive analysis of wxycandles.co.uk on 2026-07-05. The website returned an HTTP 200 status code with a server response time of 6177ms. The page is served over HTTP/2 protocol with Gzip compression enabled, achieving approximately 60.0% size reduction. The total page weight is 810 KB, and the site is served behind a CDN (Content Delivery Network). The website uses a secure HTTPS connection with a valid SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt (DV type). The connection is encrypted using TLS 1.3 with the TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 cipher suite and ECDSA-SHA384 signature algorithm. The certificate covers 1 domain(s) (Subject Alternative Names) and expires on 2026-09-11, which is 68 days from now. The security headers analysis reveals a score of 70/100 (good). The following security headers are properly configured: Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options. However, the site is missing 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 11 technologies across 10 categories powering wxycandles.co.uk. The detected stack includes Shopify, Remix, Webpack, Google Analytics 4, Klaviyo, Shop Pay, reCAPTCHA v3, hCaptcha, Adobe Fonts, Vimeo, and jQuery. The primary e-commerce platform is Shopify. The site uses Remix as its primary framework. Based on our comprehensive analysis of domain age, SSL configuration, email authentication, security headers, and blacklist status, wxycandles.co.uk receives an overall trust score of 77/100, classified as "Likely Safe".

After conducting a thorough safety and legitimacy analysis, wxycandles.co.uk receives a trust score of 77/100, which places it in the "Likely Safe" 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, HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security) enforcement preventing protocol downgrade attacks, a valid SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt with 68 days until expiration, and DMARC email authentication with a none policy. Areas of concern include: 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 wxycandles.co.uk 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.

wxycandles.co.uk delivers its homepage in 6177ms (server response time), which is considered slow by industry standards. The total page weight is 810 KB, and we detected 987 resource requests loading assets from 14 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. The website uses Gzip compression for text-based assets, achieving an estimated 60.0% reduction in transfer size. This reduces bandwidth usage and improves page load times, especially for visitors on slower connections. Asset minification status: 1 out of 4 CSS files and 2 out of 19 JavaScript files are minified. Minifying the remaining 20 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 wxycandles.co.uk produces approximately 0.4g of CO₂, earning a carbon rating of C. This is an average carbon footprint. Optimizing images and reducing unnecessary scripts could further improve this score. For reference, the average web page produces about 0.5g of CO₂ per page view. The page weight of 810 KB is the primary factor in this calculation. Core Web Vitals data from the Chrome User Experience Report (CrUX) is not available for wxycandles.co.uk. 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.

wxycandles.co.uk resolves to the IPv4 address 23.227.38.65, 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 1 A record(s) configured. The domain name system is managed by 2 name servers: ns07.domaincontrol.com and ns08.domaincontrol.com. Having 2 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 wxycandles.co.uk is handled by co.uk with 2 MX records configured: mx0.123-reg.co.uk and mx1.123-reg.co.uk. 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 (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance) is configured with a none policy — a monitoring-only setting that doesn't enforce any action on unauthorized emails. 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 wxycandles.co.uk. 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.
