How does AkOOre decide a domain is dead?
It asks DNS whether the name still exists, and then asks the site itself for a page. A name that has vanished from DNS is gone; a server that refuses every connection is gone; a home page answering "not found" while nothing else on the site answers either is gone.
A site that answers is not dead, even when it answers rudely: a "403 Forbidden" means it refused AkOOre, not that it has closed, and it is never reported as dead. A parked domain — one held by somebody waiting to sell it — gets its own state, because it cannot be registered but its inbound links are just as broken.
And nothing is confirmed on a single look. A domain has to fail two checks, days apart, before it is reported: an hour of hosting trouble looks exactly like a death, and a list of domains to buy must not be built out of somebody's bad night.
