What does a ScamAdviser trust score reflect?
A ScamAdviser trust score reflects public signals associated with a website, rather than a score that a project can directly set. For a Web3 business, that makes the website itself part of the trust picture: a visitor should be able to understand who operates it, how to make contact and what the service does.
ScamAdviser may consider signals such as domain age and registration data, hosting location, SSL, site content, contact details, business registration, blacklist reputation and user reviews. Our Desk Review checks how those public-facing details appear for your domain and identifies mismatches or omissions that your team can address.
The first useful distinction is between a correctable presentation or technical issue and a fact that cannot be changed immediately. For example, a missing contact route can be added; a young domain cannot be made older. We record the findings in plain language, so your team can prioritize repairs instead of guessing at the meaning of a score. If the wider goal is discovery across platforms, see promotion on platforms for related options.
Which website trust signals should your team check first?
Start with information a visitor can verify on the site and against the business details you provide. The ScamAdviser review looks for gaps across the domain, technical setup, content and company identity; it does not treat one cosmetic edit as a substitute for a coherent website.
| Signal | What we review | Practical correction |
|---|---|---|
| Domain and SSL | Registration details and certificate presentation | Resolve inconsistencies and certificate or technical hygiene issues |
| Site and redirects | Main pages, content and redirect paths | Clean up confusing routes and risky or outdated content |
| Company identity | Business data, registration and contact details | Make accurate operator and contact information visible |
| Policies and reputation | Privacy policy, terms, reviews and blacklist references | Fill policy gaps and investigate mistaken entries |
Prepare the canonical domain, any alternate domains, accurate company details and a contact person who can confirm changes. If registration information is private or a hosting provider controls a setting, tell us that upfront; we can distinguish what the team can change from what needs a provider request. Where a separate review profile is relevant, Trustpilot profile and reputation management addresses that channel rather than the website signals themselves.
What does ScamAdviser remediation include?
The service turns the review into an actionable correction list and supports the changes that are within the project’s control. You receive findings tied to your domain, not a generic checklist detached from the site visitors actually see.
Depending on the findings, the work can cover:
- Checking SSL presentation and technical hygiene, including visible redirect paths.
- Improving the clarity of company, business registration and contact information.
- Reviewing privacy policy, terms and site content for missing or risky material.
- Identifying mistaken blacklist entries and preparing the relevant correction request.
- Requesting a ScamAdviser re-check after the agreed remediation is complete, then reporting the score shown.
You supply the accurate company facts and approve changes to legal or business copy. We can flag missing information and implement or coordinate agreed site corrections, but we do not invent credentials, registrations or contact details. For projects also preparing directory or platform profiles, listings and verification can help organize those separate tasks; the ScamAdviser work remains focused on your domain and its public trust signals.
How does the review move from audit to re-check?
The work follows a straightforward sequence: establish the correct domain, inspect its public signals, agree on corrections, complete the authorized changes, and request a re-check. A clear owner for website access and business facts helps prevent avoidable delays.
- Kickoff checklist: Send the domain, alternate URLs, accurate company details and any known score or blacklist concern.
- Desk Review: We inspect the site and document observable gaps across the relevant signals.
- Correction plan: You confirm factual details and approve which technical, content or contact fixes to proceed with.
- Remediation and Source Check: We complete or coordinate the agreed changes, review the sources involved and request a re-check.
- Score report: We share what was addressed, what remains outstanding and the score visible after the review.
The timeline depends on the findings, how quickly your team can confirm business information, and whether a hosting or domain provider must make a change. We keep the scope visible so you know which items are finished and which are awaiting access or confirmation. For our broader working approach, see how we work.
What can ScamAdviser change, and what remains outside the project?
Our work can improve the accuracy and completeness of the website signals your team controls, but ScamAdviser makes the score calculation. The distinction matters when setting expectations: a completed fix is a deliverable, while the score response is an external assessment.
ScamAdviser calculates its score from public signals, and the score cannot be bought or set by an agency; a young domain also gains trust with time rather than through a quick edit. We can deliver the agreed audit, remediation and re-check request, but cannot dictate how ScamAdviser assesses the signals or when a domain’s age changes.
Before approving work, separate immediate actions from longer-term conditions. Ask your team to verify that the operator name, contact route and legal details are accurate; confirm who can change SSL, redirects or domain settings; and identify any disputed blacklist reference with its supporting evidence. That gives the review a factual basis and helps avoid replacing one inconsistency with another.
How it works
- Share the domainSend the canonical URL, alternate domains and the score or concern that prompted the review.
- Confirm the factsProvide accurate business, registration and contact information, plus an owner for site access.
- Review findingsWe document the visible gaps and agree which corrections are in scope.
- Complete correctionsWe implement or coordinate the approved site, technical and information updates.
- Request a re-checkAfter remediation, we request review and report the visible score and remaining actions.
Frequently asked questions
What should I send for a ScamAdviser trust score review?
Send your canonical website URL, any alternate domains, the score or warning you have seen, and accurate company and contact details. Include the person who can approve site edits or coordinate with your domain and hosting providers. If you already know of a disputed blacklist entry, share the relevant evidence so we can review it in context.
How long does ScamAdviser remediation take?
Timing depends on what the domain review finds and who needs to make each correction. Straightforward site edits can move once facts and access are confirmed; a provider change or a domain-age factor follows a different timeline. We outline the dependencies after the Desk Review and report outstanding items rather than presenting an unsupported fixed turnaround.
Can you guarantee a higher ScamAdviser trust score?
No. ScamAdviser calculates the score from public signals, and it is not something an agency can buy or set. A young domain also gains trust with time. Our commitment is to the agreed review and remediation work, including requesting a re-check and reporting what ScamAdviser displays afterward.
Is this service safe for a Web3 project website?
The work focuses on accurate public business information and ordinary website trust signals, such as SSL, contacts, policies and redirects. We do not create credentials or claim business facts that the project cannot support. Your team reviews factual and legal information before publication, and approved technical changes are handled within the agreed scope.
Can you help if ScamAdviser lists my site incorrectly?
Yes. We can inspect the public references and support a correction request for a mistaken blacklist entry. Share evidence that connects the domain to the correct operator and explains the issue. The request and supporting information are part of the remediation process; the external listing decision is not made by us.
Does fixing SSL alone improve the ScamAdviser score?
SSL is one signal among several that may be considered, so fixing a certificate issue addresses that specific technical gap rather than the entire trust picture. We review the domain, site content, contacts, business details and reputation signals together, then prioritize corrections based on what is actually visible.
