1Record and policy state
See whether the current public policy state allows normal profile display, places the record on hold, restricts public presentation, or retains it only as an informational transparency record.
Free public domain lookup
Website Trust Record Lookup
Enter any domain to inspect the public record GoGuides has observed for it: AI Rank, canonical identity, crawl and refresh timing, observation history, stability, policy state, record fingerprints, machine-readable data, and deterministic record-state favicon previews.
What your Website Trust Record will show
A GoGuides Trust Record is a public, timestamped view of what GoGuides has actually observed about a domain. It separates measured web state and policy status from Live Index inclusion, policy holds, blocked states, missing records, and temporary crawl problems.
2AI Rank and grade
View the current GoGuides AI Rank and letter grade when the authoritative public policy layer permits those fields to be displayed.
3Canonical and matched URLs
Compare the normalized website identity with the exact URL GoGuides successfully matched and measured.
4Crawl and refresh timing
Compare when the site was last crawled, when the Trust Record was refreshed, and the age of the stored measurement. These are separate timestamps and may not always change together.
5Record age and observation history
See when GoGuides first recorded the domain, the total Trust Record age, the stored measurement count, and the time span covered by those observations.
6Stability and state changes
Learn when the current recorded state began, how many days it has remained stable, and how often the stored rank or algorithm state changed across the available measurement window.
7Policy transparency
Held and restricted domains can remain visible as audit records without being presented as an allowed public-profile state. Historical observations remain distinct from current policy display.
8Fingerprint history
Inspect the current SHA-256 fingerprint and earlier stored fingerprints derived from the matched URL, rank, crawl time, and algorithm version for each recorded state.
9Record-state favicon previews
Preview deterministic 16, 32, 48, 64 and 96 pixel record-state favicons. Their appearance is generated from resolved GoGuides record state rather than site-selected decorative styling.
10Trust Profile and share code
When a domain has an active Trust Profile, open the full profile and copy its embeddable public trust-record code for use on the website.
11Machine-readable record
Follow the linked JSON representation so crawlers, AI systems, monitoring tools and developers can inspect the current public Trust Record in a structured format.
12Record identity, not owner identity
The fingerprint identifies a stored GoGuides record state. It does not prove who owns or controls the domain; owner verification and record-state verification are separate concepts.
Not another review score
Most website-checking tools return a one-time score. GoGuides keeps a public observation trail. The record can show what was measured, when it was measured, whether the state changed, which historical fingerprints were stored, what record-state favicon is generated, and what the current public policy state permits.
Measured, not self-declared
The record comes from GoGuides observations and stored system
state rather than claims entered by the website owner.
History stays visible
Policy holds and blocks do not erase the observation trail.
Transparency records remain available without turning historical observation into an endorsement.
Readable by people and machines
Each domain record can connect to human-readable history and a
machine-readable JSON representation of the current state.
How the lookup works
1. Enter a domain
Use a root domain, subdomain, or complete HTTP or HTTPS URL.
2. GoGuides resolves the record
The lookup checks canonical variants, stored observations,
domain policy state, and the authoritative public resolver.
3. Inspect the evidence
Review status, history, freshness, stability, fingerprint, and
any available public Trust Profile or machine-readable record.
Website Trust Record questions
Is this the same as a website review?
No. It is an observation record showing stored GoGuides measurements, timing, observed state and public-policy status. A Trust Record is not the same thing as GoGuides Live Index inclusion or owner participation. See how to read GoGuides results for a plain-language explanation of the displayed fields.
Does a Trust Record prove who owns a website?
No. The record fingerprint identifies a stored GoGuides record state. Domain-owner verification is a separate process.
Why can a blocked domain still have a History page?
Because historical transparency and current public-policy state are different. GoGuides can preserve an audit trail without presenting the domain as currently allowed for normal public-profile display.
Can outside search engines or AI systems use the record?
The public History page and JSON record provide crawlable, machine-readable context. See the machine-readable examples for sample formats. GoGuides cannot control how any outside system ranks or uses that information.
