    By trust site I mean the use of a logo that can be put on a website to indicate to users that the website is a paid up member of an organisation that promotes internet honesty. These are the sites I have found so far. If you have any comments on these or know of any more please reply.

    Still not fully set up, but looking good.

    Well established but overpriced with too much emphasis on privacy rather than honesty

    It would help if you told us what the site does and by extension why you need the logo.

    The Trust logos are excellent !! (Disclosure : Yes we are resellers)

    I don't see why you need these logo's unless you are in e-tail and then you should be able to display the logo of a recognised merchant that processes your transactions.

    Not really true. It's far too easy to fake whois details etc., so there was an EU directive passed on this last year.
    ID authority etc., gives users a lot more peace of mind, whether it's simply an informational site or a brochure site.
