Verifying against the live site and live WHOIS/DNS…
Common questions
Is r-studio.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 r-studio.com?
Nobody has completed AboutUs's owner verification for r-studio.com. That's true of most sites here — it isn't itself a warning sign.

How it's calculated
Prominence (Tranco rank #191,322)+6
Verified continuity: 27.1 years (RDAP registration)+11

Model score: 27/99 — what these reason lines add up to.
Published Authority (percentile): 50/100 — this site's rank against the August 2026 scored sample. Public Authority is capped at 99.
Safety evidence
No unexpired threat-feed result; name-similarity check available (recorded about 67 days ago); 3/3 transport and email checks available (oldest recorded about 67 days ago). This is evidence coverage, not a probability that a website is safe.
