Blacklist Check vs. Blacklist Monitor
Blacklist Check is a quick way to find out if one of your IPs is blacklisted and where it’s blacklisted, but it’s not as accurate as our Blacklist Monitor. Why is that? Well, for one, when you’re checking your IP via Blacklist Check, one or more RBLs may be unresponsive/offline, in which case you won’t see […]
Search and Labels
We’re going to talk here about Search and Labels for Blacklist Monitors, but the exact same thing can be applied to your Uptime Monitors. Labeling your IPs is extremely important, especially if you have to manage thousands or tens of thousands of IPs. You can add several keywords in one Label, for instance: ClientA ServerA LA […]

I just added Blacklist Monitors, why am I not receiving notifications?
Our system will only notify you of any detected changes that occur after you’ve added your monitors to our platform.

The best practice here is that when you’ve cleaned several IPs (or even blocks) that are listed on multiple RBLs, […]
Hiring Freelancers For Delisting
When it comes to delisting your IPs, it sure is a lot of work, especially if you have thousands or tens of thousands of IPs that need checking and delisting. We’ve found that the best practice here would be to divide these IPs into smaller blocks, and create Bulk Reports for each smaller block. You […]
Uptime Monitoring For Display
If you wish to display your Uptime Status to your clients, we’ve found that the best practice is as follows:
Filter Monitors Based on Recent Changes
You can view only those monitors which have recently suffered changes (ie: got blacklisted or delisted), by using the ‘Filter’ option in your Blacklist Monitors dashboard: This way you can see at a glance the monitors that have been blacklisted or delisted within the last X hours/days (based on your selection from the drop-down menu).

Blacklist Monitor Color Indicators
Color indicators can help you instantly spot the most recent changes within your Blacklist Monitors, so you can see at a glance which of your IPs or Domains have recently been blacklisted or delisted. The “Report” cell next to each of your monitors can get colored green or red. Green – means that the monitor […]
