Nothing Seems Perfect

Last Update: June 04, 2012
There's a tool I usually use called the WOT add-on that determines a site's trustworthiness, Vendor Reliability, Privacy, and Child Safety. This little tool has done me a lot of good, especially with helping me determine all the scams out there (even though I usually can take 1 look at something & tell you if it's good or not along with an important factor being price). But sometimes it seems, especially when it comes to online money guides, it often shows up as poor even if it's good. Here are 3 Examples.

I mean Geez, you'd think all these online info guides are scams. Well, I think this tools great for determining most bad sites out there, but I think when it comes to some of the top info guides, it can't really be dependable. There's always going to be people who buy there guides then don't put in the work they learned in these guides. Then of course they go back to the site marking it bad. & then of course you have to weigh in all the fake overpriced guides out there by other Internet Marketers.

* So I guess this goes to show you can't really depend on "online tools" do something for you. You sometimes just have to use your gut instinct & read up on something before you actually buy it.

Tools like this have no way to determine quality. It is similar to alexa trying to determine how much traffic a site gets, it is just a poor way of trying to get access at data they have no way to get at.

The best thing you can do when reviewing an product is to (1) see what others are saying about it out there (2) try it out for yourself. Proprietary tools that "make up data" so their tool functions don't carry a lot of weight in my eyes.

So glad you addressed this Seth. I have this tool as well and found the same thing with sites I feel are reputable. The more we know the better, and can always rate these sites based on our experiences with them, which will hopefully change future WOT ratings.
