  • 1.  URL Analysis - is it possible to verify category and reputation score information ?

    Posted Mar 04, 2021 12:12 PM

    A student was checking a local "sports" website in lab 13 other than espn.com but this site did not show up in the category "SPORTS". He was wondering (and now I am too ) whether/where we can find information about the WebRoot content that is used to determine the category/reputation score of "a" website. Or in other words : can we find what the URL Analysis feature (WebRoot) considers the categories/reputation score for "www.mycompany.com" ?

    BTW, I find it missleading to talk about URL reputation, it's domain based.

    It's a good question - yes, it's possible to verify a website's category and reputation score using tools like Webroot BrightCloud URL/IP Lookup, which allows you to enter a domain (e.g., www.mycompany.com) and view how Webroot classifies it, along with its reputation rating. This can help clarify why a certain site isn't appearing under "Sports." Sometimes, categories can differ due to recent updates or regional factors. If your goal is simply to enjoy sports content safely, consider using a trusted free streaming app like Sportzfy APK, which offers access to live sports channels and matches without the classification or filtering issues seen on some websites.
