What’s the danger of premature domain changes?

Risks of premature domain migration:

Wasted reputation:

Even damaged reputation has some value

New domain starts from zero

Recovery may have been faster than restart

Warmup delay:

New domain needs full warmup

Cannot send at volume immediately

Business disruption during warmup

Spammer signal:

Frequent domain changes are spam pattern

Providers may be suspicious of new domains

History of changes follows you

Problem repetition:

If root cause not fixed, same problems on new domain

Just delays the issue

Wastes the new domain too

Fix problems before considering domain changes.

Abandoning a ship before trying repairs wastes resources and looks suspicious.
