I have written about why should a search engine trust your site, but there are also other kinds of trust on the Internet.

Why should someone from another city who doesn’t know me at all trust me enough to let me design their website for them?

In these examples and many others we as website owners need to build enough trust in complete strangers to have them buy our products and services.

  1. Hi, Jim

    You too have a nice article on trust, though it could be very much expanded, of course.

    Thanks for stopping by at my blog.
