Easy way to tell what a site is built with so you can do the same

3 replies
Ever want to find out what WP theme a site uses?

Resources like

What WordPress Theme Is That?

WordPress Theme Detector - Free online tool to find a site´s theme

will show you that.

But if you want to get more technical....

Check out BuiltWith Technology Lookup .

Here, for example, is what eBay is built with:

ebay.com Technology Profile


and here's Gawker:

gawker.com Technology Profile

Notice how the email services are shown....

And the advertising....

Pretty cool stuff.

Your takeaway?

If you see a site and you want to do the same things....

See what tools they use and then make it so.

      Heh I originally wrote that.... but before submitting the post, I checked with my own site and found bunches of stuff (plugins/etc.) weren't shown.

      Hence the more detail.
