Absolutely. When I first heard of WebSiteSecure I didn't get it, honestly. My thought was who cares, it's just another emblem. Then once I understood the scope of the actual service, I saw its value.
Stuff like SSL cert badges or GoDaddy trust seals is helpful on a join page but it's not the same as a 3rd party audit service where things are actually being monitored and the seal gives someone real peace of mind. It's slowly catching on.

There hasn't been a formal test, at least not on my end. Stewart approached me about a year ago to give me a full overview of the WSS service. After keeping an eye on things since then, who is using it e.g. sites like Hustler, Wasteland, NaughtyAmerica etc. and noticing it on more Elevated X CMS customers' join pages, I think it's merit has been proven to where people should at least try it on their sites. The nice thing is it's just a little code snippet so if you decide to remove it, it's easy come easy go.
