What this policy covers
How we create, review and maintain guides, tool pages and diagnostic content.
Tool documentation
What each check inspects, how to read results, and common issues — without overstating certainty.
Technical review
Claims checked against current DNS, email and web standards before publication.
Corrections
Reader reports reviewed promptly; affected pages updated when guidance changes.
Diagnostic transparency
Tool pages link to methodology and data sources so results are interpretable.
Purpose
Our content explains what to check, what results mean, and sensible next steps. It is educational and diagnostic — not legal, financial or professional advice. Always confirm changes in your registrar, DNS, hosting and email provider before applying them in production.
Guides are organized by topic in the Resources hub, covering DNS, email authentication, SSL, blacklist reputation, website health, hosting and troubleshooting.
How guides are produced
- Topics are chosen based on common issues seen in support requests and tool usage.
- Articles are written in plain language with step-by-step troubleshooting where helpful.
- Technical claims are checked against current DNS, email and web standards.
- Guides list related CheckDomainHealth tools when a live check adds context — such as the SPF Checker, SSL Checker or Domain Health Checker.
- Articles show a last-updated date and are revised when guidance changes.
Review and corrections
Guides are attributed to the CheckDomainHealth Editorial Team and reviewed by Dionis Ceban for practical accuracy. If you spot an error, outdated step or unclear explanation, contact us via the Contact page with the article URL and what should change.
We aim to review credible correction reports promptly and update affected pages. For hands-on technical help interpreting live results, use Get Help instead of the general contact form.
Tool pages and diagnostics
Tool landing pages describe what each check inspects, how to read results, and common issues — without overstating certainty. Live results depend on public data sources described on our Data Sources page and the checks described in our Methodology.
Tool pages distinguish between failed, warning and not-connected outcomes so users know when a provider is unavailable versus when a configuration problem was found.
Partners and recommendations
Some pages may link to partner services or recommended providers where hands-on help is appropriate. Recommendations are based on fit for the issue described, not on placement alone.
See Terms of Service for general site terms and Privacy Policy for how submitted information is handled.
Disclaimers
- Diagnostic results reflect public data at lookup time — not guaranteed deliverability, security or uptime.
- Guides may not cover every provider-specific panel, DNS UI or hosting edge case.
- Standards and provider behavior change; last-updated dates indicate when a page was last reviewed.
- Partner links do not replace independent evaluation of services for your use case.
Common questions
No. Guides and tool pages are educational and diagnostic. They explain what to check and sensible next steps — not legal, financial or professional advice. Confirm changes in your registrar, DNS, hosting and email provider before applying them in production.
