What this audit cannot tell you
- The Internet Archive does not hold every site, and it honours removal requests.
- We read at most three captures of the home page, so the topic is a rough label.
- A clean result means nothing was found, not that nothing happened.
- We cannot see who links to the domain; that needs a paid backlink index.

Each card comes from one of the site’s tools and carries the same limits: a name missing from our .com zone snapshot is not always free, the score and appraisal are our heuristics and not a valuation, and a clear screening is a good sign, not a guarantee. A report is a snapshot with its date; always confirm with your registrar before you buy, and check that a name does not infringe a trademark.
