I work on many resources using Dreamhost, would be nice to see where it ranks

Any ideas how to detect sites hosted on Dreamhost?

asuh commented 4 years ago

That's a great question, and the first thing that I can suggest is whois a website to see the nameserver addresses. Dreamhost also has its own offering called Remixer and I believe you could view the source to see something related to that service. Otherwise, if it's something like WordPress or static files, it's just like any other host where you wouldn't be able to distinguish it from anything else.

Could check the Dreamhost reserved IP block or DNS (ns[1-6].dreamhost.com), although things get a bit tricky when behind a CDN and sites using 3rd party NS
