seek.com passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 95/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.

Does seek.com have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes. seek.com presents a valid TLSv1.2 certificate issued by Amazon · Amazon RSA 2048 M04, expiring in 130 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.

How old is the seek.com domain?

seek.com is 32.5 years old, registered on 1/13/1994 through CSC Corporate Domains, Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.

Where is seek.com hosted?

seek.com resolves to an IP operated by Amazon Corporate Services Pty Ltd in AU (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.

This is a permanent record of the scan run on July 5, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own.

Confidence

The domain has been registered for over 32 years, aligning perfectly with the company's founding in 1997. Our analysis confirms it is owned by SEEK Limited, a legitimate business listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. The site features professional branding, valid SSL encryption, and a clean reputation across all major antivirus engines. While there are reports of scammers impersonating the brand or posting fake jobs, these are third-party threats rather than an issue with the site itself.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

Double-check the exact URL in your address bar
Confirm you are actually on seek.com and not a lookalike like s-eek.com.com or an IDN homoglyph.
Use a password manager
Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.
