Fabulous product, thank you so much for this guys. Loving it. Although not all the ratings are absolutely perfect, you can go and read them and the all comments before you install anything or visit the site - invaluable really for keeping that one-step-ahead of all nasty stuff on the interwebs.
It's a very good system of circles next to every link on pages like google or facebook, and it is interesting to read the comments. The only problem, but I think is's hard to manage, is the tiny.url sites.
GOOD SITE but websites can sometimes be perceived as dangerous wrongly

The reputation doesn't tell you if a site is dangerous, it tells you if others trust it:

WOT is taking hours and money from me. I have 120 names and all the ones that are well ranked and popular have been blacklisted by a spammer at hpHosts and I am forced here to WOT.

Most of your sites were blacklisted at hpHosts, probably not without a reason, so I fail to see how we damage your reputation. If you are interested in improving the reputation of your sites, you may want to follow the "Click here if you own this site" link on the scorecard to request more reviews instead of shooting the messenger.
I would not be without WOT! They are my guide for where to go and where Not to go! I believe that every body should have this on their computer. Great work that you are doing! Cabelli5
WOT seems to be more interested in helping people who have malicious intent to block sites that they want to harm. How do you say a rater posting ratings in the hundreds of thousands a year is ethical and trusted. If we are reasonable people it should be apparent that one person could not have visited all those sites and done their homework in a thorough enough manner to give a useful and truthful review. A lot of people on here argue that WOT is great but from the information I have gathered there are quite a few "bugs" i.e flaws in it's system and until those flaws are fixed ratings should be taken with a grain of salt. It's better to go with your virus protection software such as Webroot that blocks malicious sites know and even these are not 100% accurate since there are a lot of trusted sites that I visit that somehow get this warning.
When using the internet we do have to proceed with caution but lets not all get caught up in the mob mentality that WOT seems to want to promote. There a lot of people on here giving ratings to sites that are not malicious at all, or that won't harm children but are said to...these sites actually provide quite a bit of good information. WOT may have good intentions but even these can go awry.

WOT tells you how much people trust websites, and how many sites someone has rated has nothing to do with how much their ratings are trusted. You may want to read the FAQ:

http://www.mywot.com/wiki/FAQ#People_who_rate_a_lot_of_websites_are_spammers
If you feel a website has been rated unfairly, start a thread about it on the forum. If you own the website, follow the "Click here if you own this site" link on the scorecard.
Edit: I'm guessing this is about this site, which some people don't find very trustworthy:
