What do you think that Webmasterworld should add Website Review in the Forum?, so that many experts could be suggested the good review for who post the website for reviewing.

The mods have to deal with enough as it is. The "review my site" forum would be instantly be loaded wwith gambling sites, porn, affiliate sites, new product sites, you name it. All of which would have to be dealt with all day long.

And what if my competitor (who has already stolen my text and my property names) wants to get her site reviewed here? I wouldn't be happy to see a panel of experts giving her tips on how to make her site better. Not happy at all.

Others may feel differently.

Yes there are lot of spammers out there who are just waiting to get into forum like this and website review part give them lot of opportunity

but something like members with say 500 posts can post onto that part or only subscribed members can take part can be good option

any ways..its all upto Brett and i know he dont like the drop urls so this part wont be allowed onto this forum

To me the purpose of WebmasterWorld is to LEARN SEO and not to provide a community of "free" experts for site evaluation. Site evaluations can be very expensive for a reason; they take real experts to get it right. Who's the last expert that gave you step-by-step instructions to fix your car? Your family member who's a mechanic? Fine. That's to be expected. People shouldn't expect to go a car dealer and have an expert write them instructions to overhaul their engine for free. Why would any expert participate in a forum which takes money out of their industry? I like the fact that the site requires some work to learn SEO tactics. There are plenty of reference guides on here that will help you get good rankings. (one of the best beginner's guides that I've ever seen was published here by Brett) Start there, learn what you need, then ask for specific advice which will help you deploy the tactics.

I guess it goes back to "Give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime". If you want an expert, pay for it, or become one.

Actually, WebmasterWorld already has a forum for this. It's called the Commercial Exchange [webmasterworld.com].

Simply post that you need a website review, give some specifics on what sort of information you want about your site's effectiveness, and you will recieve plenty of cost estimates from members who will happily review your site and send an invoice with the report.

We took a stab at this many years ago, WebmasterWorld Answers was the concept (predates Google Answers!) Message 45 [webmasterworld.com] and beyond.

Website Reviews? Sure, no problem. Reviews start at $2,500 USD and go up from there. ;)

All major credit cards accepted.
