I do not believe these sites that give ratings, simply because, on the whole, this sphere can not be honest, well, or because people have such an opinion and only a correct evaluation of projects can really fix the situation, but now my opinion is definitely not to believe these resources. Because they can be bought, or rather their opinion and their evaluation.

Not really,I take a look at rating before taking a desicion to participate in particular ICO but there's no any  guarantie that the current project's rating has not been paid by its own devs.

No rating are bullshit of course!!!  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes. I strongly recomand you to not invest based on a rating. there is a business to pay to have grade in ICObench for exemple. And it is very subjective IMO.
for exemple, crypto compass provides research on ICO, they do not give a rate/note. if interested the link is https://www.crypto-compass.io

These sites are mainly affect the investors mind set about crypto. So basically these sites are paid by different ICO camps to give them high rating in order to make their name interesting in the eyes of the investors.  Because of this bad system that currently occurring in the market a lot of scams where perfectly executed and destroyed many lives of investors.

I think they give more guarantee for you. But not 100%.

Of course you should not believe the ICO trackers, as there is also for sale listing . Of course it is very expensive, but the industry contains a lot of money. I am sure that any such site it is possible to negotiate the purchase of anything. The question will be only in price . Maybe there are some honest sites, but I'm sure a few of them.

For you to be able to comment on the rating, you should be able to know what the ratings are based on and whether they use members votes and many others. I for instance, I do I am aware that ICO ratings are just figures that are written on the websites that we see. The reason is that if the analysts do not have enough knowledge or info about the team, what the project is about, they give them low ratings and the other way round.

ICO ratings are really helpful in some times,but use them only for your reference.My advice is do your own researches on certain ICO that you are going to invest.

They are useful tools but really too easy to fake results and/or FUD competition (for those that offer professional reviews etc). Use it in your full analysis of a coin but don't use it as your only analysis

I see many Websites that provide ratings for ongoing ICOs or for the future. Examples such as the ICObench.com Website, ICOrating.com and others.

Which is my question whether you believe in the rating provided by the website. Seeing many ICO's do not match what they value. Many ICOs are arguably good ratings but when the token sales of the project only reach softcap. And there are projects that I see have a fairly mediocre rating but their token sales reach hardcap. I took the example of Lalaworld on ICObench.com they get Rating 3.7 but their token is sold out.

So let's discuss ICO Rating!
For me not hundred percent I really depend on ICO rating but the fact is I used it as my reference which is added me an idead before I joined bounty program.

I would say I do, but not totally. I say that because whenever I choose projects or ICOs to enroll in for campaigns, I check some sites in order to check how the community views and rates the project. It shows me at least how many seasoned users, which can be a reliable pieces of information to guide with the projects I join. I value the experience of the people there, but I don't totally and immediately believe it. I usually compare and contrast the information I get from one site with another, plus the information I get from this forum and from other sources.

I like when they offer a short video review with basic introduction. Saves a lot of time understanding the actual USP's of each ICO. Also, I use it to keep track on whether the project itself is starting to get some traction going on. A hyped ICO doesn't necessarily mean the final project will be great of course Smiley.

However, I always realize that they have been paid one way or the other (most or all do I assume) so even the most logical explanation/conclusion is biased in the end.

Doesn't mean they can't raise great points to keep in mind when researching ICO's to invest in....

What I find weird btw is that some openly solicit in Telegram channels....like "I do reviews for this and that website, admin, please contact me if you are interested in having your ICO reviewed by me" Smiley.....always annoys me Smiley

I think you have to take them with a pinch of salt.

Most ICO websites make money on the fact that ICOs pay to be on there. The issue there is that only ICOs that have a big budget for marketing get onto the big ICO websites and it doesn't matter if they are poor projects or not.

They are a good source for finding new ICOs, but once you find the project do you own research. Read their white paper, ask questions and see what the community is saying about them.

When looking at ratings its important to know how they rate. Myself, I use them as a reference point when looking at ICOs. There are soooo many ICOs know that you cannot look into each and every one. So I look at the reviews of those with good rating and the ones I find interesting, I will follow up with my own research

YES, ICO ratings are very important it is a rating where the future ICO is being explained and rate, most people which are future investors of the ICO are reading it. Most of them based their decision on whether to invest or not and how much. ICO ratings are really important, they are the one who understands all corners of the prospective project. they study the presentations and make reviews of it. Though these ratings can't tell the outcome of the ICO. Not as Important as you think actually, plenty of ico list that ratings ico just can give a project high rating because they are getting paid to promote the ICO and that action couldn't be considered as honest action when it comes to rating an ICO. so basically most of ico rating = uncredible.
Actually, do not believe that. That is because I never try to join or invest into an ico. But if someday I decided to invest into some ico, I think I will never trust or read that kind of thing such as ratings and stuff. Or ico reviews that are people talking about in youtube, facebook, twitter, instagram, and some other media or social media. But if I want some recommendations and real review, real feedback, I will just go to facebook groups or this kind of online forum to ask or read people who already join and know the devs. I think, in my opinion, that kind of people can be trusted.
