    So sit back and get ready. By the time you finish reading this article, you’ll have an ace up your sleeve should you ever face one of these unfortunate experiences again!

    What is SEM Fresh blacklist?

    The SEM (Spam Eating Monkey) Fresh Blacklist is a comprehensive and regularly updated list of known sources of spam email.

    This dynamic blacklist is maintained by Spam Eating Monkey, a popular anti-spam tool that uses a combination of advanced algorithms and human intelligence to identify and filter out unwanted email messages.

    The SEM Fresh Blacklist includes domains and IPs that have been identified as sources of spam or other malicious activity, such as phishing or malware distribution. The list is constantly updated to stay ahead of the latest spammer tactics, and it is widely recognized as one of the most effective tools for combating spam and protecting email users from harm.

    Overall, the SEM Fresh Blacklist is an important resource in the fight against spam and online threats. Its regular updates and sophisticated analysis techniques make it a powerful tool for anyone looking to protect their email and online identity from harm.

    How does the SEM fresh blacklist work?

    The SEM Fresh blacklist is immensely valuable for digital marketers and website owners alike. Designed to identify and flag malicious, spammy, or low-quality sites, this blacklist helps to safeguard website owners against harmful links and content. Here’s how:

    • The SEM Fresh blacklist achieves this by constantly scanning websites and domains for suspicious activity, including malware, phishing scams, and other harmful content.
    • Using a sophisticated algorithm, the SEM Fresh blacklist assigns a numerical score to each website or domain it reviews, based on a wide range of factors including link quality, content quality, and user engagement.
    • Websites that score below a certain threshold are flagged and added to the blacklist, making it easy for website owners and digital marketers to avoid potentially harmful sites when building their online presence.

    How to check if my IP is on the SEM Fresh blacklist?

    The best and most convenient method is to use Warmy.io. This platform provides a comprehensive Email Deliverability Test for free.

    The free email deliverability test from Warmy provides an assessment of your emails and where they are landing. Here are some other examples of the valuable information and data the deliverability test provides:

    • Blacklist status: Learn if your domain or IP is listed on any blacklists so you can proceed with the delisting process.
    • Authentication verification: Assess your email reputation and verifies your email authentication settings such as SPF, DKIM, and DMARC.

    How to delist your IP from SEM Fresh blacklist

    According to an official statement, removal requests are not possible for the SEM Fresh Blacklist.

    This list is comprised of all domains registered within the past five days, and it expires automatically after the same duration. 

    The blacklisted TLDs include .AERO, .BIZ, .COM, .INFO, .NAME, .NET, .PRO, .SK, .TEL, and .US domains. As of now, there is no provision for expediting the process.
