Trusted

These people have the tops power moderators at the top of their pyramid and the lowly ordinary real customers of a site at the bottom of that pyramid. Therefore, one power member, who votes on 800 odd websites a day - can destroy the reputation of a site with out dated information, information that doesn't relate to the site. Having a registration form to buy from a site- = privacy issues ( even though someone doesn't need to register to just browse. Having google ads = "cookies" - even though the actual site has no cookies. Having a product that one person, in 35 years, in 91 countries, complained about- ONE PERSON = "I don't trust" - even though the product in question is no longer sold by the head office, even though the company's HQ stopped making that product- ( it's like someone selling baby powder and getting blamed for toxic shock) - They have no scruples. One even said "bad customer experience" - someone I've NEVER SOLD TO and can PROVE - the poor little distributor gets a " i don't trust". I checked my Alexa and I had ONE VISITOR in the 4 days these childish people were suppose to have evaluated my site- I had one visitor go to my home page only- no where else, Oh, and my site has a "contact us" page- about us page - yet I was told by Crazy Domains if I worked from home, for safety hide my details over the internet. So, I paid extra to have these details hidden, yet if you visit the website you can CLEARLY FIND ---- ( again, I'm accuse " I don't Trust" is left) and I sell VITAMINS - I'm a carer for a 92 year old who broke her back in 3 places, I use this to have a "hobby" and a little extra. I have worked very VERY hard on my reputation and find this site MYWOT a DISGRACE. I'm now labelled " poor for children" and " I don't trust" I'm am going to check the internet for ANY SITE that had WOT and going to tell them of my experience. I contacted support- no response.
BUT - I can fix it- all of have to do is get 10,000 people to join MYWOT, this will increase their "membership" make them look good and give them credibility.
They hide behind the 3rd party law- But, in 2015 that wont wash in most countries. They MAY get away with it but the acutal moderators wont. I've checked. The moderators MUST (by law) produce up to date and factual information- if they are intrusted with a sites reputation. Of course, to vote oor do 800 actions a day - a member cannot have a job and is probably on a drug like speed. How can ANYONE make so many "assessments" in one day and not be on drugs or have a job? Not possible
So- these are the types mywot are entrusting the web of trust with and the company has been told and told - again and again. - yet they do nothing
I ask myself WHY and I find the only answer is they NEED these people, because they have no REAL members. Without them, they are nothing- AND THESE MEMBERS KNOW IT. Without these power crazy, immature, childish, trolls, mywot doesn't exist.
Not one moderator came to my aid- not one.
I was ATTACKED by 3 people and a 4th joined a few days later with " i agree"
Didn't visit my site though!
Didn't use my site- didn't join - didn't register- didn't TRY to register with fake email or something- but they have decided I am POOR and BAD site for kids.
WOT A JOKE!
Web of Trolls - don't use - don't join
Oh- and the MODERATORS have access to your IP and EMAIL addresses

I trust this site. Safe and accurate,

Here's my personal experience with MyWOT. It's a long review, but do read it before installing the add-on.

The idea of Web of Trust was good initially, aiming at preventing you from visiting a website deemed unsafe by WOT community members. But it has been misused by the moderators and owners of the WOT community.

How is WOT a SCAM?
The algorithm used by WOT is TOTALLY FLAWED. Here are a few reasons.

Reason #1: BIASED RATINGS
Suppose you and your 1000 other friends like a new website which gives much useful information about Children and how to take care of children. A genuine site providing useful information.
Now You and your 1000 other friends vote positive for the site in the WOT plugin.

But, Wait:
Now a moderator of the WOT who might be a children hater, or having some mental disorder sitting at some dark corner of the world, who has no love for children, votes the site negative. And BAM, now the genuine and useful site you and your 1000 other friends loved, shows as an unsafe site in WOT. Also the WOT plugin prevents you from opening the site.

Because a vote of a moderator or so called elite member of WOT has thousand times more weightage than yours.

WOT do prevents you from known spam sites but it cant be totally trust in case of business sites and personal blogs as the ratings are totally biased. There are much more better unbiased security addons avaliable which is monitored by experts on their field

Would you support such kind of rating system with no equality among users?

Reason #2: YOUR PRIVACY IS AT RISK
Web of trust gives no guarantee about the browsing history and your other information which the plugin stores. WOT is a start-up company which plans for profit in future. It might seem free today, but with all your private data,

WHERE'S THE GUARANTEE THAT myWOT WONT SELL YOUR PRIVATE DATA IN FUTURE TO MAKE A PROFIT?

Reason #3: WOT is abusing the freedom of Internet
The internet is free, and the best platform to express the opinion of people. And thanks to projects like linux and firefox, we can be assured that it will always be.

But Sites like WOT abuse this freedom of internet. A bunch of freaks, rating websites, damaging hard earned reputation of brands, by the click of a button, thinking of it as a game. The more you rate the more score you get. Stupid.

WOT would be good only if the rating system changes, and the moderators and owners realize that it takes effort to build a brand and gain the love of its customers... The moderators need to stop thinking themselves as some superheroes born to protect the world from spam.

This was my experience with facts about my WOT and how I feel it is not at all useful, unless they change their algorithm. You can read more by doing a simple google search for Is WOT a spam? And you will get a million other reasons why not to use this add-on.

Rest your call. God Bless!

Read more if you are a site owner:

If you are a site owner:

NEVER EVER submit your site for evaluation on their forums. The site evaluation is just meant for known spam sites to try to recover their ratings. Its not for new blogs or brands.

The moderators having no idea of running any business will simply insult you again and again, and finally after all the insult you will always end up having a bad rating for your site for a totally unjustified reason, which is not given by people of your country, or people who love your brand.

It is totally biased on the moderators view of the world. Your site might be country specific or you might be sharing your opinion an an issue on your site, which if contradicts with the opinion of the moderators, or the moderator is just a anti-social person, will result in getting a bad rating for you.

There do a couple of good members who will first point the defects on your site, and would give you time to correct those before rating, but overall you will definitely have a bad experience with people who have no understanding of your business and who are not ready to listen.

So BEWARE!

P. S: I had a really bad experience with my WOT both as a customer and as a site owner.

Do some more research and If you too feel that WOT is a scam aiming at dominating the freedom of the Internet, then do aware others about it...

Anyone can rate on wot
10 yrs old mischievous child or 80 yrs old senile senior citizen
Highly inaccurate and full of flaws
A great idea that unfortunately doesn't work well enough
To merit a good recommendation
