websites to check other websites reputation?

[SpectacularTheDude]

More specifically websites like scamadviser or scamanalyze.

Do these websites work properly? Are they reputable themselves? And if so which are recommended?

Thanks.

When I need to check website, I use URLVoid and VirusTotal.

This is the only one I know
Whois Lookup, Domain Availability & IP Search - DomainTools


EDIT: yeah or VT

VirusTotal is good for checking if a URL is detected by an AV engine however you'll need to remember that the AV engines submitted to VT are not always identical to the ones published in the actual software and therefore the detection rates may be either more aggressive or weaker, depends on the vendor.

You can also use services like Whois and URLVoid as suggested above already.

Yup i seconded @Wave suggestion since VT compiled results of various vendors.

Unless you are also looking at whitelisting, then probably going back to those vendors themselves for reclassifying, i.e.:
Trend Micro Site Safety Center
Is This Website Safe | Website Security | Norton Safe Web
Check Single URL

There are multiple tools available depending on what you want to achieve

• if you just want to check website category ,I normally go to WebPulse Site Review Request

• If you want to check the actual content of a webpage including referrals, scripts etc then http://www.wannabrowser.de
• If you only want to view the webpage then URL2PNG - Screenshots as a Service

Generally I just rely on me thinking before I click and then it goes to my filters in uBlock Origin and uMatrix. If I'm really suspicious, I'll put the link into VirusTotal before opening it (I rarely have to do this one).

There are several online services that can do what you want.
Besides those ones previously mentioned, you can also use check for malware incidents at AVG Threat Labs.
But it turns out that even reputable sites (like Facebook, Google, Blogger etc) may occasionally host malware or have other issues. So if you want to have an overview of the reputation of a website, you can check it out using Web of Trust
