    IsTheWebSafe.com ?

    Anybody know how this website generates it safety data? It looks to be a user generated trust system much like WOT only all anonymous ratings (no registration to rate + or -) and anonymous comments unless you choose to post to Facebook.

    RE: IsTheWebSafe.com ?

    Maybe is more one in the ocean.
    The reason to exists, i think that is the google ads (that helps alot).
    If is a serious servive to be continued, we will see in future, case they would be able to work without the helping adsense ads.
    A good service is always a service that we fight and work to make it live, not a comercial reason...

    This one collect data from every people without membership, not bad, but risky....

    Anonymous based rating? This site is prone to trolls IMO

    Checking http://whois.domaintools.com/isthewebsafe.com I see that - at least - the WhoIs isn't private, making it more trustworthy than similar sites like - for example - http://whois.domaintools.com/webutation.org that has been around for a longer time.

    isthewebsafe.com
    website-worth-value.com
    safe-browsing.net

    They could turn out to be legitimate but then they could also turn out to be some bogus ratings/reviews services.

    isthewebsafe.com
    website-worth-value.com
    safe-browsing.net

    Shows "trust" ratings for sites based on SafeBrowsing and Alexa ranking, even when a site has been queried with no user input, you'll see between a 3/5 to 5/5 based on "popularity"

    If you enter example.com, you'll see it's a "safe site" and "very popular" (5/5)
    However, if you enter example.org, you'll see it's not suitable for children, and the "global safety" is "not safe" (4/5) - screen capture
    I'm not sure how popular example.org is... it's a reserved domain, see RFC 2606
    and redirects back to: http://www.iana.org/domains/example/

    If you enter a non-existent domain, or one which is available to register (expired) it does not return a reputation; try: stopcontenttheft.com (expired: 26JAN2012), or make up a domain such as: a1b2c3d4e5f6.com

    RE: IsTheWebSafe.com ?

    Hi guys, i'm ITWS and Safe-browsing webmaster...

    Fisrt, i would like to say thanks for your great advices, i'll make sure to fully consider your comments !!

    I also wanted to add that i will make sure to work my best on those sites, and can assure you i'll do my best to stay focus on my work and "fight to make them live"...

    I also wanted to explain why there is 2 versions of them, it's cause as you can see, i'm steel working on beta version's, and hope to launch many new features in the future and will try different approach depending on which site, to see what is best for a safety app and its users...

    As you can see g7w, it might not work well for redirected domain or interface domain yet (when there is nothing on the main page), and i prefer to ignore expired domain for now, until i improve the safety report page... But i can promess, i'll work on it very soon !!

    Thanks again guys, for your great comments/advice, i really appreciate your honesty,
    Hope to hear from you really soon, and why not, work together in the future ;)
    IF you have any questions, suggestions, ideas, anything to say... i'm all yours ;-)

    Have a nice day !!

    False claims

    What's worse, they say the addon logs the URLs you type! And just look at the possible domain name variations:

    Half of those domain extensions don't even exist. o.O
