Sucuri vs unflagdomain for Website Blocklist Removal

FACTS AS PUBLISHED BY SUCURI ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2026 · SOURCES BELOW · LAST CHANGED SEPTEMBER 24, 2026

// ANSWER

Sucuri sells blocklist removal only as part of its annual Website Security Platform plans — Basic $229, Pro $339, Business $549 per site per year — where its team cleans the site using FTP, SSH or hosting credentials and then submits the delisting requests; its blocklist page states it is 'not a separate service or optional upgrade'. unflagdomain is a one-time dispatch to every flagging vendor, after a free scan, with no cleanup and no access. Choose Sucuri for an infected site that needs cleanup and a firewall; choose unflagdomain for a clean site that is still flagged.

PricePer site, per year, on Sucuri's signup page: Basic Platform $229, Pro Platform $339, Business Platform $549; Junior Dev $999.98 for 2–5 sites; 10 or more sites 'Price upon request'.

No subscription, no account.
What the price pays forAn annual security platform: monitoring, a firewall, malware cleanup with a stated SLA, and Sucuri's delisting submissions after cleanup.The dispatch: writing and sending the requests. Payable whatever the vendors then decide.
One-time optionNo. Sucuri's blocklist page: blocklist removal is 'a core feature of Sucuri's Complete Website Security Platform Plans. It's not a separate service or optional upgrade'. Its terms: 'ALL SERVICES ARE OFFERED ON AUTOMATIC RENEWAL'.Yes — the only option. No plan, and no cleanup of any kind.
Who it is forOwners of hacked or flagged sites who want cleanup, a firewall and delisting from one provider; agencies with several sites.Owners of an already-cleaned website that security vendors are still flagging.
Vendors coveredSucuri's blocklist page lists Google Safe Browsing, Norton, Spamhaus DBL, Yandex, McAfee SiteAdvisor, Bing, PhishTank, Bitdefender, ESET, AVG and Avast 'Plus 100 more'; its FAQ on the same page names about 120 lists.A catalog of 133 vendors (104 contacted by email, 28 by web form, 1 manual). The free scan checks the vendors whose verdicts can be queried. For every vendor that flags the domain, an email request is sent — or, for form-only vendors and Google Safe Browsing, prepared text is put on your dashboard for you to submit.
How removal is deliveredBy Sucuri's team, after cleanup. Its blocklist page: 'Once your website is clean, we submit review requests to remove blocklists.' The customer starts it 'by opening a support ticket from your Sucuri dashboard'.One separately written plain-text request per flagging email vendor, spread across one hour after payment. Sent from unflagdomain's sending address with your address as Reply-To. Form-only vendors and Google Safe Browsing become prepared cards you submit yourself.
Where vendor replies goNot stated on the pages cited.To your inbox: your address is the Reply-To, and unflagdomain never sees or stores them. A vendor system that ignores Reply-To and answers the sending address instead does not reach you — that address does not receive mail.
Free scannerSiteCheck, free. Sucuri's own note on it: 'Remote scanners have limited access and results are not guaranteed.' Its blacklist section shows Google Safe Browsing, McAfee, Sucuri Labs, ESET, PhishTank, Yandex and Opera.Free, no signup: the scan shows which vendors flag the domain before any payment.
Access requiredYes. Sucuri's blocklist page, step 1: 'We connect to your website using secure credentials (FTP, SSH, cPanel, or hosting access).'None. No server, FTP or Search Console access is requested.
Malware cleanupYes — 'Unlimited' malware and hack removals on Basic, Pro, Business and Junior Dev, with a stated Malware Removal SLA of 30, 12, 6 and 12 hours respectively.Not offered. unflagdomain does not scan for or remove malware; the site must be clean before the requests go out.
Guarantee wordingSucuri's blocklist page shows 'Guaranteed Malware Removal' and a '30-Day Guarantee'; its SiteCheck results page offers 'guaranteed blacklist removal' on signup. On timing, Sucuri's FAQ: blocklists 'usually take from three to five business days to remove sites from their blacklists and there is no way to speed up this process'.Dispatch of a correctly formatted request to every flagging vendor that accepts email, within 48 hours of payment; if an address bounces, another working contact is looked for and the request re-sent when one exists. Not delisting, and not a timeline.
RefundSucuri's terms: 30 days from the service start to cancel and be refunded, 'provided that you have not submitted a Malware Removal Request during the Cancellation Period'; otherwise the fee is 'non-refundable'. If Sucuri cannot clean the site, it refunds the annual fee 'as its sole and exclusive remedy'.Automatic and in full when the re-scan run straight after payment finds no vendor flagging the domain, because there is nothing to send. Refunds are not tied to vendor decisions; other cases are in the refund policy.
