NEWBURYPORT, MA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- April 11, 2007 -- DNSstuff.com, a global leader in DNS
knowledge and tools with one of the largest communities of IT professionals
on the Web, today introduced its RBLalert service to provide 24/7 automated
monitoring of an IP for its possible inclusion on spam blacklists.
"A large number of our users have repeatedly asked us for a quality RBL
service because being improperly blacklisted can cause irreparable harm to
both reputation and commerce," explained Rich Person, CEO of DNSstuff.com.
"The new RBLalerts allow a company to be notified immediately if any of
their domain's mail server IPs are blacklisted, on which list(s), and what
steps can be taken to remedy the situation."
The new RBLalert service from DNSstuff.com queries over 130 blacklists and
provides notice any time an IP address is listed or de-listed from one of
these services. The service requires only an IP address to monitor and an
email address for notification. Each RBLalert from DNSstuff.com includes a
timestamp of the notice, the name of the blacklist, and instructions or
recommendations for removal if necessary.
"Email is the lifeline between our business and our customers, and being
improperly blacklisted not only tarnishes our credibility but it directly
impacts our business in a negative way," said Brad Hall, founder and CEO of
EntertainmentCareers.net. "The problem is often compounded because it can
take hours and hundreds of returned emails before you even know there's an
issue. DNSstuff alerts us before the problem spirals out of control --
providing total peace of mind even while we sleep."
More information on the RBLalert service is available at www.DNSstuff.com.
DNSstuff.com members pay just $36 per year for membership and receive one
(1) free RBLalert with their subscription. Additional RBLalerts start at $4
per month for a single IP address.
