Nice

Pretty much same as Trustpilot, but sometimes having "Something Went Wrong" Errors :/

Website Claiming probably easier than Trustpilot ;)

The worst devloppers and community i've ever witnessed in gaming

old player from the debut of this game, i don't really recommend this game to anyone, even my enemies... if i start stating all the problem about this game, the list is going to be long..... story short, the Wargaming company is a greedy company, who is treating thier players as milked cows, and many public incidents had shown thier true colors.... dictatorial system, they don't like to be criticized, and they don't listen to thier player base, and didn't care about improving the game in the right way, they only put effort into making premium contents to milk more players... and if you take a look at the game now after all this years, it is a real unbalanced eastern casino, amount of RNG makes the battles luck based, matchmaking is aweful, tanks and maps are unbalanced.... and a great amount of players are just a bunsh of toxic ignorant, who buys eveything Wargaming throuws at them, wish makes the game stay at this bad state.... i've seen other reviews on other website that are cearly rigged, don't trust that, i guess this company bribe stuff to hide thier nonsense.... new players must see this game as fun, untiil they play more. i warned you, stay safe and spend your money somewhere else

Not website owner friendly

I only know about WoT because someone told me that some extension or something like that was blocking my website. So I looked at Wot and there are some bad reviews for my domains that are 7 and 8 years old. I have only owned this domain for about a year or two, so it was someone else who owned it before me. That is, my website is being blocked because someone owned this domain 7 years ago and had an apparently bad website behind it. I emailed support but the only responses I got were ads. Even the image that should show the website and update automatically shows a website that hasn't existed for years...

misleading or developer don't know how to calculate an average ?

They flag every site as safe with a fake positive rating. Almost all of the reviews are 1 or 2 stars and it gives 4.3 star rating.

Hey there, thanks for reaching out.
The WOT algorithms consider a variety of parameters and values when calculating a final website score. One such parameter is the “weight” of each comment, which is calculated based on user trustworthiness. User trustworthiness is calculated by our proprietary algorithm and is based in part on the frequency which a user submits comments.

At the same time, we encourage website owners to ask users to add more reviews, so that the "weight" of their reviews will be higher, and if our algorithm recognizes these reviews as trustworthy, they may have an effect on your website ranking. Please contact us directly if you have any questions or if there is anything else we can assist you with, thanks.

I expected much more...

There are websites with a bad reputation/review from customers, but it is still rated good by WOT. It should change its overall rating policy so it would take in more of how customers think. Also, I think real-time protection isn't doing anything at all.

WOT Isn't What It Used to Be

I have lost confidence in this site and service.
WOT used to be run by a Finnish owner but it has subsequently been sold to Chinese owners, out of Hong Kong, who have fraudulently represented the business as being unchanged and have deliberately impaired the bias of the rating system so that it is now subject to score manipulation for profit.
The result is that certain sites, which should have low ratings, are rated higher than other legitimate sites in the same category or obviously fraudulent sites have very high ratings. They additionally peddle a smartphone app which is tied into the same corrupted rating system.

Though WOT might still be useful for some information and does offer useful tips to many site owners, WOT is no longer a fair arbiter of web site safety.

It's pay-for-ratings now.

Still extremely bad

Still extremely bad, still arrogant customer support, still do not remove site false accusations evaluations that have been flamed by anonymous users.

I have one site that has a bad WOT rating saying the site scams people out of credit cards! the site has never been used and has been parked for nearly 20 years, another has no automation, has never been hacked and uses HTML pages.

Gave my website a scam tag

Gave my website a scam tag, zero customer reviews have been made on WOT so unsure how they came up with this.

10,000 orders without a single issue yet they tag my website as a scam site?

Fully SSL secure zero spam links and a registered business.

No reply to my requests

Web of "trust" is a hoax

Web of "trust" is a hoax. There is nothing trustworthy about it. It has lies posted onto legitimate sites and when confronted, refuses to take them down. When I logon to a very trusted site, you get this big warning that the site is "hateful, discriminatory, gruesome and shocking" which is just stupid, as there is nothing of the kind on that site. When challenged, they say that someone (they wont say who) told them this, but they will not check it out, and they say are not responsible for the information they post on that site!! Hope they get sued over idiocy like this.

Open to abuse

Generally I've had good experiences and kept safe but it's so open to abuse. I have a free Wix site purely for advertising my small business with no spammy links or anything in any way malicious and yet I have received the dreaded red circle. Clearly being abused by competitors or what have you

Billionaires Brotherhood Makurdi

Am Known as Bishop,I am from Ghana a man of God,i came across this site called The billionaires brotherhood which is believed to originate from Nigeria a country that is believed to have the highest con artist.In my quest for powers,wealth and money i decided to give them a trial.I contacted the chief priest by name Temi Billion hmmmm the name sounds like some kind of jokes or an alias but that was his real name.After evaluation i was sent with a letter of invitation which i was to pay, to me i saw this as another scam but i wanted to play along.I arrived Lagos and from there to Benue state in the capital Makurdi but to the greatest of my surprise,everything was real.And i returned back to my country Ghana the new person I am till today.One thing i learnt is Not All Nigerians are Scammers especially those from the Northern part.I give you my ***** 5 star.
