VERDICT

Should I use Wmtips?

Webmaster tips, tools, and web technology market-share data - wmtips.com

Depends. Fine as a free, casual reference for web tech market share and site lookups — evidence is thin. Don't treat it as a vetted data vendor: no support, no reviews, no security page.

Confidence

Low. Based on 14 public sources; very few directly review the product, so confidence is low.
