Verifying against the live site and live WHOIS/DNS…
Common questions
Is perfectxml.com legit or a scam?
AboutUs doesn't label sites "legit" or "a scam": this page lists the dated registration, DNS, HTTPS, mail-authentication and safety checks we could verify, each with its source, so you can decide for yourself.
Who owns perfectxml.com?
Nobody has completed AboutUs's owner verification for perfectxml.com. That's true of most sites here — it isn't itself a warning sign.

As XML rapidly complemented HTML as the defacto "interchange language" of the web, a strong need for an independent, authoritative community site for XML was felt. PerfectXML was started to fill that need - by people actually using and teaching XML in their daily lives.
