What Are Benefits of Domain Reputation Analysis?
Mail domains provide a good initial overview of the email address reputation. Disposable and high risk email service providers are likely to result in fake or duplicate accounts. User registrations from domains in this category should be treated as completely fraudulent and a robust API makes it possible to filter account sign ups in real-time.

This check determines the health of an email address such as when the domain was first registered and when the email address was first seen across the IPQS threat network. Additional risk analysis data points make it easy to judge the quality of an email address and the corresponding mail domain reputation.
Does Domain Reputation Affect Email Deliverability?
Absolutely. Domain reputation is used by all major mail service providers like Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, Hotmail, AOL, and many more to identify SPAM and abusive senders. If you are unsure if your email domain reputation is contributing to poor email deliverability, please use our free email SPAM check to identify possible issues. We also recommend checking your domain health with the lookup tool above. Cleaning email lists every 6-12 months, especially for older subscribers can greatly improve domain reputation.
How To Improve Email Domain Reputation?
Email domain reputation can be improved by ensuring best practices for email deliverability, including setting valid DNS records like SPF, rDNS, PTR, DMARC, and DKIM policies. Maintaining clean reputation for sending IP and domains is critical for email service providers (ESPs) to allow messages into the inbox, instead of quarantining the message into the SPAM folder. Periodically checking to see if your domain or IP is blacklisted can help prevent email deliverability issues.
