DESCRIPTION
When I analyzed deviantart.com, I didn’t see a connection between the domain name and the content. There seemed to be some darkness to the content but darkness and deviance are not the same thing. When I checked deviantart.com’s meta description, there was no mention of anything related to deviant or darkness; it only mentioned that it was an art community. I recommend making sure that each of the words in your domain name is related to the content. The content on deviantart.com had very high-quality pictures; however, much of it looked like it was AI-generated. I was most impressed with the Marvel pictures. I thought the category menu was one of the most useful category menus I have used on any website. I recommend adding more internal links within the content thought, perhaps beneath the images at times, rather than having nothing but images on the page to help increase user engagement. More internal linking isn’t critical on deviantart.com because the category menu was so useful that it likely gets enough engagement to compensate. 11/8/2024

Is deviantart.com Safe?
I analyzed deviantart.com for malware and malicious content to check if it was legit or a scam. Here are the results:
