Reading a verdict
Every source linking to your domain sits in one of three lists. Here’s what each verdict means.
Sink
We treat this source as hostile or worthless: farm networks, spam TLDs, link-selling operations, forged-referer sources. Traffic from it is sunk at the edge; it earns nothing from you. Pattern-obvious farm inventory is sunk automatically — numeric churn domains, named link networks, mass-scripted hosts.
Keep
Sources we believe are legitimate: real media, niche-relevant sites, genuine directories and communities. Nothing is blocked. Low authority is never, by itself, a reason to sink — a small greyhound club site matters to a greyhound site regardless of its metrics.
Review
Everything we can’t call with confidence. This is where your knowledge beats our classifier: you know your niche’s real sites better than any metric. Move items to Sink or Keep yourself — your calls are also how the classifier improves.
What evidence you see
Each row shows the source, its authority metric, a sample anchor and the reason it was classified. We deliberately don’t publish the full decision rubric: the people building spam networks read documentation too.
