Are PaaS providers like Heroku appearing as "Amazon" in the web host column? Would be interesting to see this broken down further if that's the case.


Agreed. I'm working on updating domain-profiler to better detect PaaS providers like Heroku, GAE, and Azure.

In the meantime, you can see who's using Heroku by looking for domains that have an SSL certificate with a certificate type of "*.heroku.com"


That's only if they are using the free wildcard ssl addon. If they have their own cert and domain name (most do) then they won't show up like that.


Oh, good point. I don't know how I missed that. Thanks!
