Qualification and contact evidence

A high website score is not enough. A complete SiteRevive result must pass business fit, website opportunity, report quality, contact evidence, suppression, and email-preparation gates.

Website opportunity

SiteRevive records deterministic signals such as:

• Missing mobile viewport configuration: 25 points.
• Very slow mobile PageSpeed result: 20 points.
• No secure HTTPS connection: 15 points.
• Legacy technology fingerprints: 15 points.
• Stale public dates: 10 points.
• Missing search and sharing metadata: 8 points.
• Insecure page resources: 7 points.
• Broken internal pages: 10 points.
• No way to contact the business from the homepage: 12 points.
• Desktop-only fixed-width layout: 12 points.
• No working website at this address: 25 points.

The score is capped at 100. It prioritizes audits; it does not predict a reply or sale.

Business fit

Google Places evidence checks operating status, category, rating and review history, service location, public phone, and official website. Closed and future-opening businesses are rejected. Missing evidence earns no invented points.

Contact evidence

For a native result, the exact email must:

• appear in the downloaded HTML of the official website;
• match the business domain;
• have valid syntax and mail-domain evidence;
• include the public source URL and checked time; and
• remain clear of suppression and previous-contact rules.

MX records only show that the domain receives mail. They do not prove inbox placement or that a specific mailbox will accept the message.

Probable, catch-all, guessed, stale, personal, missing, or off-domain contacts do not count.

Why candidates are replaced

Common reasons include a weak redesign case, closed business, missing website, crawl failure, report-quality failure, no official source-confirmed email, suppression, prior contact, or a worker timeout.

Rejected or timed-out candidates do not increase the progress bar. The run keeps evaluating its bounded pool until the target is filled or the pool is exhausted.

Audit the evidence

Open the report and contact source before sending. Automated checks can be incomplete. Remove any message claim you cannot defend from the visible report. Do not use a manual verified label to override missing official-site evidence.
