Post edited 12:39 pm – January 2, 2012 by Sunil from The Extra Money Blog
Thanks to Larry from the Skilled Investor, I've come to know that because of a few people (IP addresses), I am being slammed by the WOT (web of trust). Didn't even know who these guys were/are…
The challenge for me is that WOT does not tell me why I am being penalized and for what (I don't know what to fix if I don't know what is wrong in the first place)
Larry also informed me that when he visits my site he sees the following message:
"You are about to log in to the site "extramoneyblog.com" but the website does not require authentication. This may be an attempt to trick you. Is "extramoneyblog.com" the site you want to visit?"
Is anyone else getting this message?
Not sure why this message would be there given that no one has to login anywhere to access my site.
If you have a WOT account, I'd appreciate a positive vote from you to help dig out my blog from the marsh (only of course if you feel the blog is legitimate and provides quality / useful information)
Thank you in advance for your help, and I'd be happy to hear your input and address any questions

Looks like few people got intrigued by your home page, not the blog home page. And reported you. We as a community can change the feedback by voting in favor.
One question, you promise to give $100 if someone cant make $45 in 25 mins..is that always honored? There might be few such people who reported you. IMHO

I've never seen such an error message. The site doesn't have much info either: http://www.mywot.com/en/scorec…..eyblog.com

There's very low confidence in the ratings, so a few good reviews should spruce things up.

SB – that link helps, and your explanation helps even more so
the $100 guarantee is solid and I have never been asked for the $100 because everyone makes the amount promised. the only exception was a slow computer / connection in which case I offered to help them over Skype – but this was years ago – so it seems at least
Kevin: Yes – would really appreciate some help digging the site out of the grave

Sunil, us giving feedback is only a temporary cure. You might need to add some T&C to make it legit. Else, believe me people can take advantage of the system to make you bankrupt paying out $100 every 25 minutes.
If people can make 13 attempts a day to hack in to a blog admin, you might end up having 1000s of requests for $100 per day.
Making this legitimate is the only way to ensure no negative feedback in future.
I will leave a positive feedback for sure.

I don't think I understand your comment SB. Add TC to what? The terms are clearly spelled out. If one doesn't make X in Y minutes, then they deserve $100. Everyone who attempts makes Y therefore no one has asked me for the $100.
How does the 13 attempt comment fit into this context? Help me understand this…
Thanks

What's a WOT account? I commented because my CPA has saved and made me money for years and I pay for it too.

Friends – thanks to everyone who left a comment I really appreciate it. Above the comment section there is a rating graph. The rating is based on those. If possible I'd appreciate a rating on that scale which will contribute to my score.
I plan on writing to WOT asking their input to avoid similar circumstances going forward.
Again, thank you everyone for helping
