How to get started with blacklist monitoring
The ZeroBounce Blacklist Checker service will provide invaluable information about your domain, IP address, and mail server blacklist status. Our system delivers automated checks of over 200 blacklist providers and includes a blacklist checker that alerts you if your addresses are found listed. Using our blacklist checker, you can quickly verify whether your domain or IP address is flagged and take immediate action to resolve any issues.
Decide what you’d like to monitor
ZeroBounce can monitor three types of addresses: a standard domain (example.com), an IPv4 address (255.255.255.255) and an IPv6 address (2001:db8::8a2e:370:7334). We recommend monitoring all three types, as this will provide greater coverage.
Get notified if you’re found on any blacklists
Once your monitors are active, you’ll be notified if your addresses are found on any blacklists. We actively monitor over 200 blacklist providers. Depending on the subscription level you’ve chosen, our automated checks will happen over multiple intervals, daily. You can also manually check your domain's blacklist status using our service to ensure your domain remains clear. If you’re found listed, we’ll send you an alert email. We also alert you if you’ve successfully delisted your address.
Act quickly & prevent sender reputation damage
Our email alert system will also provide you with the contact link to each blacklist provider’s website. From there, you can quickly perform an IP blacklist check to see if your domain or IP address is listed. This IP blacklist check allows you to identify and address any issues before they cause significant damage to your sender's reputation. Once identified, you can swiftly act to have your domain or IP address delisted and mitigate any potential harm.

Frequently asked questions
Blacklist monitoring is a service that monitors your email domain and IP reputation in real time. Blacklist monitors are looking for signs that your email campaigns are automatically blocked or flagged as spam by internet or email service providers. They achieve this by actively performing a blacklist search to look for your email domain on known email blacklist service lists. If your domain appears on one of these lists, you’ll receive a notification so that you can take action.
An email blacklist is a collection of email addresses that are known spammers, spoofers, and overall bad actors. Internet service providers work closely with blacklist services to know which email senders are trustworthy and which senders pose a risk to the public and their private information.
An IP blacklist is a type of email blacklist. Your email domain, IP address, or both may be what’s added to an email blacklist. If either your company domain or IP address ends up on a blacklist, you need to take action immediately to protect your sender reputation.
Blacklist monitoring works by providing the service with the domain or IP information you want to monitor. Depending on the blacklist monitor, you can actively supervise your domain, subdomain, and different types of IP addresses, including IPv4 and IPv6. The email blacklist checker in our service then actively compares this data against its known list of blacklist providers and automatically alerts you if your domain or IP is detected on any list.
Yes. Removing your email domain or IP from an email blacklist is possible by contacting the blacklist provider. Many blacklist providers have websites that allow you to look up your domain and IP and learn what infraction led to the blacklisting. After you take action to resolve the problem, submit evidence to the blacklist service that the problem is resolved, and you will be removed from the list. Please note that this may not be true for email domains with repeated infractions and multiple blacklistings. If there is substantial damage to your sender reputation, you should show considerable effort to improve your email-sending habits before you can be removed.
