I work for a cybersecurity company, and I think that the method they used to check these links with the mentioned security companies was not a reflection of how they detect. I'm sure that many of these companies do not have these domains in their DBs of bad sites but if you were to run these products and then visit the site then heuristic detection would have likely flagged the sites.

I would have expected at least Virustotal to flag them if that were the case. It does more than just looking up in a database of known malicious URLs and I think the reputation of the domains is the key factor here.
