For websites and email addresses, you might see multiple IP addresses configured into the DNS setup (A or MX record). By default, you will see the results of the IP address at the top. To check the IP blacklist status for the remaining IP addresses, click the relevant IP.
Why Should You Check Blacklist Status?
Checking the blacklist status of your email or domain IP address lets you monitor reputation. A bad reputation can increase your website’s spam score and affect email deliverability.
Improve email deliverability
A blacklisted IP or domain can cause your emails to land in spam folders or get rejected. Our email blacklist checker helps you find issues early. By fixing those issues, you can keep your email reputation healthy.
Domain reputation
For websites, having a good domain reputation is a must. Getting a domain IP blacklisted harms its reputation. Our domain blacklist checkers tell you if your IP is blacklisted in any of the databases, so you can take action in time and protect your domain reputation.
Detect security issues
IP blacklist listing can sometimes point to security problems. For example, spam activity, malware, or a compromised mail server. Performing an IP blacklist check helps you spot these issues early, so you can fix them before they become more serious.
Monitor IP Reputation
Your IP address reputation affects how email providers and online services treat your traffic. If your IP has been temporarily blocked somewhere, it may be due to its appearing on a blacklist.
IP blacklist lookup helps you monitor your IP reputation and identify blacklist listings. If your IP appears on any blacklist, take action before they affect your emails or online services.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my Email Spam Listed?

Is my IP on a Blacklist?
Use IP blacklist checker to check if your public IP address is listed on blacklist databases because of suspicious activities. If your IP address gets blacklisted, it will affect your browsing and email-sending experience. You might get banned from accessing some websites, too.
What does it mean if your IP has been Banned?

What to do if your IP has been Temporarily Blocked?
If your IP has been temporarily blocked, check if it appears on an IP blacklist. Then fix the issue, such as stopping spam activity, removing malware, or correcting server settings. After that, request removal from the blacklist or wait until the temporary block expires.
How to remove IP from Blacklist?
To remove your IP from a blacklist, first fix the issue that caused the listing, such as spam, malware, or a compromised server. Then submit a delisting request to the blacklist provider. Once the provider verifies the issue has been resolved, it will remove your IP from the blacklist.
Can a shared hosting IP become blacklisted?
