    Great idea, but I was disappointed that I couldn’t search by technology. I personally care not what technology was used to build my favorite sites, but since I write software proposals day and and day out my customers care what sites were built with a given technology. Perhaps I’m just missing this… I saw the “popular technologies” but couldn’t seem to go beyond it.

    Hi,

    I was looking to speak with someone about the network you have set up and future plans for your bandwidth, colocation, and CDN. My company is a wholesale provider of bandwidth, backbone services throughout the US, and colocation for high content sites and I wanted to see if there is an opportunity for us to work together to lower your costs on those products.

    Please contact me to discuss what my company could offer you.

    Thanks,

    -Levi

    Interesting, would be more useful if you provided more – that is all the click-through URLs from the source, links to CSS style sheets, perhaps URLs to the script, yada yada. All of these things would help developers built better. Also, if you track through the DOM a bit more to find out how they built the page framework, that would be a nice thing. Too high level right now to be of any real value but you’re on to a great thing!

    I removed my site by mistake. I’m trying to have builtwith re scan my site but it doesn’t seem to do that.

    BuiltWith is an interesting idea and offers small bits of useful information, but falls flat in really providing a useable technological overview of a what a site is built with.

    For example: MySpace.com
    Simply looking at the URL of any page on the site shows it’s running ColdFusion and using the FuseBox framework.

    There are many other sites giving away their technology that BuiltWith isn’t catching.

    I hope you’ll find a way to glean the ‘big picture’ technology too.

    Brilliant! I’ve only used the free version so far and looking in the paid version but the info that this generates is very informative. 5 STARS!
