What is an IP Blacklist Checker?

An IP blacklist checker is a tool that scans your IP and domain against the same blacklists that receiving mail servers check before accepting your message. If you're listed, your email can land in spam or get blocked outright.

Why did I get blacklisted?

Common causes include spam complaints, high bounce rates, compromised accounts, poor email list hygiene, etc.

How long does it take to get removed from a blacklist?

Removal can take anywhere from a few hours to several days; it depends on the blacklist provider. Some listings are removed automatically, while others require a delisting request.

Which blacklists matter most for email?

Does being blacklisted affect my whole domain?

Not always. Some blacklists list domains, while others list IP addresses. The Snov.io Blacklist Checker checks both, helping you identify which one has been affected.
