Rating websites
You must have the WOT add-on installed into your browser and enabled to rate websites.
For the most current version available, you may obtain it on the download page, also there is WOT for Opera.
How to rate a website
There are two methods available for you to offer your testimony for a website.
- Rating window
- Left-click the WOT symbol on your browser toolbar for the small pop-up rating window
- Website scorecard
- Middle-click the WOT symbol on your browser toolbar to access the website scorecard
The rating window is the simple and quick way to offer your testimony for the site. The website scorecard shows much more detail about the website than the rating window and offers the ability to leave a comment, should you decide to do so.
note:
Comments are not ratings and have no effect on the reputation of a website. They are merely an expressed opinion and are not a requirement when rating.
Rating duration
A question that always appears on the Forums is, Do ratings ever expire?
To quote one of the developers, Sami
Your ratings aren't deleted unless you delete them manually. Although ratings aren't deleted, they do expire over time. The older your ratings are, the less reliable they are considered, until at some point they will have effectively expired. The rating won't be forgotten though and if you ever revisit the site you have rated, it will be refreshed and considered brand new again.
