01 · Investigation Brief
Investigation Brief
surveys.coronainsights.com is a subdomain operated by Corona Insights, a Colorado-based research and consulting firm that hosts surveys on the Alchemer platform. The page currently displays a 'Bad Request' error because the specific survey link has been moved or removed. The domain is over 17 years old, carries no active threat warnings, and is referenced in legitimate news and partner project documentation.
Evidence supporting legitimate operation
Research records show Corona Insights used this subdomain to host a 2022 survey for the Colorado News Collaborative, referenced in a Post Independent article about local news organizations.
The same firm partnered with Press Forward Minnesota to design and field a questionnaire, with the project documentation naming surveys.coronainsights.com as the delivery platform.
The registrable domain is 6,292 days old and the browser threat feed returns no threat warning.
Current page condition and technical signals
The captured page shows the Alchemer survey header followed by a clear 'Bad Request' message stating the survey was moved, removed, or the URL was entered incorrectly.
One stale antivirus entry flagged the URL as suspicious; the flag is isolated and not corroborated by current Safe Browsing or recent scans.
Why the score is 82
The saved checks found no material threat, but the evidence was not strong enough for the highest Safe tier. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.
