Hosting ARIN Content
Summary
Automattic (WordPress.com)
hosting web cdn
Automattic (AUTOMATTIC) — the company behind WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Tumblr, Jetpack, and Gravatar.
What it's used for
- Hosting and serving WordPress.com sites and Automattic's related platforms from a relatively compact, highly efficient network.
Notable
- A small announced footprint fronts a very large number of hosted sites — an IP here can serve many WordPress.com blogs at once.
- Automattic is distinct from the open-source WordPress software project, though it's the largest commercial host of it.
Interesting
- Automattic runs as a famously distributed, remote-first company, which is fit for operating a globally cached publishing platform.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 436 networks and 1,769 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
