Garud.jp (Domain) Investigation Report

Domain age and registration stability

Score: 88

Passed

"Older domains are not automatically safe, but age is still a useful trust signal."

Reason: The domain was created in 2011, so it has a long registration history.

Blacklist and phishing screening

Score: 96

Passed

"This meaningfully lowers the chance of obvious malicious behavior."

Reason: No Google Safe Browsing threats and no crypto blacklist hit were returned.

Traffic realism

Score: 72

Passed

"Traffic alone does not prove legitimacy, but it makes a throwaway scam less likely."

Reason: The domain has measurable traffic, about 213.6K monthly visits, which supports that it is active and used.

Ownership transparency

Score: 39

Failed

"Sparse ownership data keeps identity confidence lower than it could be."

Reason: The public evidence does not clearly identify the real operator or registrant.

Technical hygiene

Score: 84

Passed

"This is a healthy baseline, though it does not rule out bad content."

Reason: Valid HTTPS, MX, SPF, and standard name servers are in place.

Brand and complaint signals

Score: 61

Passed

"The web search results were mostly unrelated names or generic risk guidance."

Reason: The supplied search evidence did not show a direct complaint pattern for garud.jp itself.

Business plausibility

Score: 66

Passed

"The evidence suggests a legitimate niche site, but the exact business purpose is still not strongly documented."

Reason: The site description and traffic pattern fit a real Japanese content site rather than a blank scam page.
