I have just got my first domain from godaddy.com but looking at web of trust my domain was once owned by a spammer and has a low rating.

On web of trust I can ask the community to reevaluate the site, but what about other sites that give domain ratings? What sites give ratings of domain names and what can I do about them? Also how can I check if Google has blacklisted my domain?

The awful truth I found over the years, was that if your domain was blacklisted, you might as well forget it and start again with a new name. Been there done that!

To "repair" the reputation is nearly impossible and takes forever. Now you've learned how dangerous it is to pick up a "used" domain name. That "beloved" Domain name It isn't as important as we think :-) Just go get a new one for 10 bucks.

The best you can do, is launch the new site, with legal content.

You can use their tool to rate the site with high ranking and that will compensate for the bad preceding reputation. Of course you should leave a good comment and be sure that the date and comment reflect the change on direction of the website.

No need to mention that you are the owner of the site, In this case, the opinion of the owner has less value than other users.

Of course, you should have good content and not just a poor site.

About other sites, try to find references to your site on Internet. Be thorough.
