How we check

  • DNS and email records: queried live over DNS-over-HTTPS from our edge servers. Propagation compares 6 public resolvers, not hundreds.
  • Blacklists: 7 DNS blocklists are queried. A clean result here does not mean no list anywhere has your IP.
  • SSL dates: read from public certificate transparency sources, which can be briefly out of date.

Corrections

If a result or guide looks wrong, tell us. Guides show a last-reviewed date and link to the provider's own documentation.
