Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.
“Netcraft (G2 high performer, ranked #1 overall in some guides like WorldMetrics for preemptive domain disruption)” Grok 4.20 · DRP · comparative prompt · alternative

“Ranked highly for its cost-effective solutions, especially for smaller teams needing transparent entry pricing” Mistral Small · DRP · budget prompt · alternative

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.
“Netcraft specifically warns against the "dashboard trap," meaning a vendor may look good at reporting but not actually move abuse cases toward removal efficiently.” Perplexity Sonar · DRP · negative prompt · soft negative
“Best-in-class speed for removing fake sites/social accounts, but less transparent for low-budget entrants.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · DRP · budget prompt · soft negative
Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 53 of the 53 answers that named Netcraft and are not a share of its labels.
252 of the 289 domain citations in answers naming Netcraft came from somebody else's page.
Pages are listed as the models cited them.
Search figures are US estimates from DataForSEO, read October 5, 2026; AI search demand is its modeled, directional estimate, not a count of queries to any assistant. The answers are this edition's. Two measurements side by side: neither is read as the cause of the other.

Every page netcraft.com exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person.

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Netcraft's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Netcraft, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.
A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for Netcraft by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:
