Anyone want to go burst their bubble?

They think they are such hot shit now and have started charging for their forums.. they can fuck off for all I care.

They have so much info there, I love it :)

I was surprised when I first read that.It doesn't seem as big to me as GFY by a long shot.There is bugger all happening there at the moment thats for sure.
Their forum is going downhill fast in my opinion.Brett is getting toooo precious about his WW.Far too much moderation going on and a lot of cliques happening backroom.
GFY has a lot of shit on it and noone seems to care about SEO discussion but the attitude is better here.I think.:2 cents:

WebmasterWorld is free, you just donate.

I don't really like WebmasterWorld for one thing, their posting process. All posts are filtered through their mods first before being posts, and only about 20% of my posts are actually posted on the boards.

But, it's a good resource no doubt.

its no GFY thats for sure

Quelle suprise, charging for it eliminated 99% of the kids, trolls, sig whores and fuckwits.

Good for them, but one reason they are high on Alexa is the same reason GFY gets high, more webmasters than average users have the Alexa toolbar installed.

The more webmasters that visit your site, the higher your Alexa ranking. When you are a webmaster site, you are going to be ranked higher than a non-webmaster site with the same or more traffic.

alexa ranking is hyped up crap :2 cents:

The supporters forum is $87 for 6 months.
But really there is not much going on there and they are moderating that at the moment as well.
then there is the moderators forum which only moderators have access to.Thats where the wheeling and dealing goes on with contacts and work coming in from companies looking for SEO's.

No one gives too much away on the forums as they all know GoogleGuy reads the posts so most info gets traded in sticky mail.

GFY is on another planet, webmasterworld will never be so good :2 cents:

Is it comprised of BUSINESS ONLY forums? I'm sure people would PAY for those.

Yeah, those drinky drinky one icon posts sure carry a lot of value.

Plus the flames and piss threads..those are what makes a site

ROTFL

yes,lots of great info, no comparison

So much false info too.

Gofuckyourself is #1

:thumbsup

I am gonna go and post some of my pics in there forums brb:Graucho

That will teach 'em.:) May even bring their pr rating down a couple.

I second that

Google gives them a little extra benefit though. You can drop your ww username too and get some privilege when reporting abuse or emails, etc.

There's not much there without the Google presence though IMHO.

Gosh I cant believe they made such a big deal out of Alexa. Its well established that webmaster sites do well on Alexa because they form the highest proportion of users most likely to download their surfing software bar or whatever.
