Quick Thoughts on Domains and Their “Trust”

I see there are a lot of questions about what domain names to use, when, for what, where to buy, etc. Let’s figure it out.

Facebook uses the service rating when checking a domain for phishing, spam and other bad things.Web Of Trust(well, plus probably some other databases/algorithms that I don’t know about). This is explicitly stated in the Facebook rules:

WoT is a site where users rate different domains, and as a result, a security verdict is issued: Safe/Unsafe and reputation in stars on a five-point scale.

Here, for example, is the result of checking the site mcdir.ru, on which the Russian hoster Makhost, popular among arbitrators, issues free third-level domains of the form xxx.mdir.ru. As we see, the situation is disappointing. And often, when we insert a link to such a free domain in Ads Manager, our preview immediately disappearscreativity, which is a virtually guaranteed indicator that the ad will not be approved.

Therefore, just in case, before registering a domain, check it: you never know, what if someone already registered this name before you and ruined their reputation? If we are dealing with a new domain, then, of course, WoT has no information on it and, accordingly, FB does not either. It looks like this:

So, my main idea is this: FB doesn’t give a damn what domain zone you have novoreg in. Even free FreeNoms, even super-duper .com for a hundred bucks — monopenisual. Therefore, I personally think that spending money on “normal” domain names to use them in the field of FB arbitrage (especially when working with blackhat, where domains fall off like leaves from trees in autumn) is pure madness. The main selection criterion: the cheaper, the better. For free? Just what you need! ?

Much the same can be said about the “beautifulness” of a name. No, do you really think that users meticulously study whether titan-gel.ru or tittttan-gel.tk is written correctly in their browser address bar on their mobile phone?

They say that a domain with a good WoT rating has some advantages over novoreg:

1) no longer gets banned for violations (but still gets banned in the end)

2) you can use subdomains, and they will fly off, not the main domain (I haven’t seen this, usually when a domain gets dirty, all the subdomains fly off at once)

3) a campaign launched on such a domain passesauto-moderationand starts delivery almost immediately!

I have no experience working with such domains, because I’m too lazy to chase them at various auctions. If you are targeting such trust domains, drop a few lines in the comments, please!

It remains to be said that you can make a trust domain out of a newreg by boosting the WoT rating. Don’t try to do it yourselfThis is done by specially trained people, please contact☝ Cost about 2k₽.

And finally, add the list of where to get domains in the comments:

1) Freenom.comakaDot.tk— timeless classic?

2)Promotion from namecheap with domains for 98 centsand in general it’s quite cheap on NameCheap

3)Domain price comparison service

4) Thread on Ru-Board (hey, old folks, who remembers Ru-Board?)with a huge list of where to buy what is cheaper

5)3rd level domains pp.ua free

Well, that’s enough of you, pour into the plus, gentlemen!
