Submit a website to Norton Safe Web

Norton Safe Web analyzes and rates websites to see how they affect your device. When you see the grey icon next to the search results, it indicates that Norton Safe Web has not analyzed that website. If you are a site owner, you can submit your website for evaluation. If Norton Safe Web already evaluates your website and you want to dispute the site rating, submit the website for re-evaluation.

  • If you own a website, you can submit it to Norton Safe Web for evaluation. For more information, read the section I need to submit a website for evaluation or review.

  • A website is rated as unsafe if it contains threats. You can submit a re-evaluation request for your website if you believe that your website is rated incorrectly. For more information, read the section I need to submit a website for evaluation or review.
