Marketplace trust

Trust & Verification Center

LinxGiant uses objective verification states instead of vague “trusted” badges. Each badge describes what was actually checked.

Domain verified

The account demonstrated control of the listed website using a LinxGiant DNS TXT record or HTML verification meta tag.

Automated verified publisher

The publication passed LinxGiant automated checks for verified email, domain ownership, HTTPS, reachability, homepage indexability, minimum meaningful homepage content, publisher-policy information and acceptance of marketplace standards.

Website verified advertiser

The advertiser or agency demonstrated control of its business website and passed website reachability, HTTPS, verified email and policy-acceptance checks.

Traffic verified

This badge is separate from ownership verification. It should only be displayed when traffic evidence has actually been checked through an accepted verification process or data source.

Reliability score

Once enough real orders exist, LinxGiant can calculate operational reliability from completed orders and placement survival. New publishers should not receive invented historical scores.

What verification does not mean

Automated verification is not a government identity check, legal certification, financial guarantee, endorsement of every article, or promise of Google rankings, traffic, DA or DR changes.
