domains banned in search engines
I need to know how to locate domain names that have been banned from yahoo and other engines due to spam, I dont want to reg. a expired domain name and then find out it is banned from search engines.
Any help in this matter would be great, please include links if you can.
thanks
Brandon

AFAIK there is no tool or online program that will tell you this. You could try http://www.archive.org to see if a domain has previously had a site on and then you can think if it's worth the risk or not.
If you do buy a domain and you think that it may have been banned for some reason you could drop a line to the SEs saying you have just bought it and ask them to lift any ban that's in place.
