# Scoring Mechanism

**NOTO** has a built-in <mark style="color:orange;">**Scoring Algorithm.**</mark>

The *score for each domain* is expressed in form of a number (from 0 to 100) and is computed using a set of parameters that include:

* Geographic DNS rules *(e.g. certain words are blocked in some countries)*
* Provider rules
* Your custom [Resolution Settings](/noto-api-docs/get-started/create-your-project/resolution-settings.md)
* Your custom [Collision Management](/noto-api-docs/get-started/create-your-project/collision-management.md) settings

The Score is currently used primarily for Domain Resolution to provide an indication of which domain should be used in case of collision between different namespaces.
