Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about darknetworld.com and how it works
How often is site status updated?
Our system checks all listed services every 60 seconds from multiple global monitoring nodes. Site statuses are updated in real-time based on those results.
How do you determine if a service is "Online", "Offline", or "Unstable"?
Status is determined using a scoring algorithm that considers:
- Response times from multiple global sources
- Availability consistency
- Functional checks (e.g. login or landing page reachability)
- Historical uptime trends
Sites that are partially accessible or slow across nodes may be labeled "Unstable".
Can I request a new site or service to be monitored?
Yes, absolutely. Please contact us via Jabber (OMEMO) at: with the following:
- Official URL of the site or market
- Available mirror links (if any)
- A brief description
- Any verification notes (e.g. PGP or forum announcements)
We typically review and respond to requests within 24–48 hours.
How do you protect against phishing and fake listings?
We apply multiple verification layers before adding a service:
- PGP-signed announcements from site admins
- Verification of onion addresses via trusted sources
- Regular comparison with known phishing databases
- Community flagging and manual review
- Visual hash-based mirror verification
Still, users are encouraged to independently verify links before visiting any darknet site.
