Hello Crypto Community,

I would love to hear your thoughts on which are the best ICO rating websites based on the 3 following criteria:

1) Popularity/ clicks  :)
2) Quality/ actual due diligence and depth of evaluation criteria.  ???
3) Personal favorite  ;D

Thanks again for your support!

Alex

Googling 'upcoming icos' or something along those lines should give you several popular ICO related sites. Just make sure to scroll past the ads and click on the top organic searches. One of the popular sites I use is tokenmarket.net, but I'm sure there are many others.

I don't think I can pick any because most of them are paid to promote those ICOs and to get listed or review from them they usually request for payment or tokens

I have always used ICO list https://www.ico-list.com/. It would be best to make your own conclusion on an ICO before investing as opposed to using free research firms.

I also check this one:
http://icorating.com/

I do believe relying on only ICO RATING websites, not a wise choice. As someone posted above, they get paid for a review and of course, it gets biased. You can do your own research and compare the result with the ico rating site, then again you will get biased and made a justification of your choice when you see a good number in the form of ratings.

You can watch ICO's here.

http://www.coinparator.com/ico-live/

However nobody is telling you if invest or not, just giving you link to source. You have to do your own research.

ico-list, tokenmarket, etc. Most ico websites are good, at least better than forum because here you can't see good projects because of lots of airdrop ann.

For ICO reviews and ratings here is my two references: icorating.com and icobench.com, but somebody said that some of ICO company paid these website to to make a good review, so i also review some ICOs that advertise on facebook and other social media sites. It is ourselves is the resort on which of them are the best fit of your choice.

I can recommended to you , ico drops and ico bench. Those are very helpful when selecting a ico. You see in icodropa they rank the ico as high, medium , low.

You can see the results and compare thier rankings.


I am using these for a long time. Power ledger and omesgo i got from this...

This is a pretty good ICO review site, I've been using it for a long time. The ICO projects that I invest are listed on this website. But to assess a potential ICO, you need to study more deeply about that project to decide on the investment. Do not rush to invest in an ICO project you do not know yet.

May I add something your list? I think ICO which give the follower many profits is important  :D because any one join in an ICO who give them many profits  8)

Compare on several sites, see a smart contract and fillability, the size of the community. Consult your friends

I don't think it's too good for me to refer to the ICO website. If a ICO is working with a web site, you can make a lot of fake things out. I mean ICO is not necessarily dependent on ICO website. Of course, it can be used as a reference, but be sure to study it by yourself. Including the project's community construction, team, technology, investment, marketing and so on.

I use one site, I really like icodrops.com, I think it's the best. It also has the ability to view the bounty program.

I think almost all are similar I always search in google and I often use icobench and icorating. but ico rating website does not have much effect for me. I prefer to read and learn their whitepaper, roadmap and the team.

There are many ICO rating sites, some of which are:

icorating.com
icotoinvest.com
icobazaar.com
coinschedule.com

These are popular at the mo.

They all offer a review, hype score and rating score.

Icorating websites is useful in terms of following as some of the friends mentioned above, but reliability is highly controversial. My recommendation, you shouldn't invest absolutely without eyeing the whitepaper of the ICO that you will invest in

im usually using icobench, there are a lot of ico available there and you can see all the information available about the project

I didn't know these two websites, it's always interesting to read extensive reviews. Apparently we have to keep in mind that they could be not impartial.
usually, I read thread on the forum and I read all the information coming from the project itself (whitepaper, website) to make my own opinion.

All ICO review sites are accepting adverterial posts. So i mean if a scam ICO give money to site owners they will be listed in top of the list.
We need a decentralized ICO review website which run with donations not accepting adverterial posts.

and if u want to have a notification for ICO RATING or best ICO  you can open this link https://www.icohotlist.com.
and than you must register or login first.to get notification.

Website has Good list but I doubt it's what Op is asking for. I actually need exactly thesame thing.. .a website/forum with great administrators that is free of bias, dishonesty and crooks. Wish stuff like that could be found quickly.

Some of the best ICO rating websites going now are,

icotoinvest.com
icorating.com
icobazaar.com

these are good sites and give rating scores and reviews.

for me the best is icorating they give information for free and do the analysis about the coin and they put risk score after reviewing the coin , they also give hype score about the coin which is how many people will gonna invest in the coin. they also give rating which is useful and gives about information why its stable , risky , positive.

It's always good to DYOR (do your own research). Most ICO rating sites are paid to do that, which means their review may not be objective. So what y'all need to do is look at the project, what the use case is, what problem it's gonna solve, then the pedigree of the team behind the ICO. Most ICOs are scams until they prove otherwise.

I agree but the problem is websites like that still need money to run hosting, reviews etc...so they will need to find some balance between making money and performing the review.

ohhhhhh, avoid those ICO rating websites like the PLAGUE!

They all have an incentive structure where icos can pay them for prominent display or favorable "reviews".

If there is one that is truly unbiased and just posts info, then I would honestly like to know of one, but I've yet to find one.

If you want some good advice on ico's, why not trust the person closest to you?  Yourself!

nothing beats your own due diligence.
If you are not sure what makes a good investment than just look it up.  There are tons of articles and posts that talk about what a good investment is.

Here are the basics:
-Research the development team to see if they are legitimate, real people, with real professional experience in what they are doing
-look at the conditions of the ico, how many will be sold, what is the hard cap, what percentage goes to pre-sale vs. crowdsale vs. to the devs, how long it is etc.
-Read the whitepaper and roadmap carefully, does it seem plausible and professional?
-if they have a product, test it out for yourself.

The website is good, but you need to study the upcoming companies ICO yourself, it's all become difficult to do because of the large number of new and new ICO.

You're absolutely right. We have been approached by many ICO review websites asking for astronomical fees and the higher you pay the better the review in many cases. Exactly, the reason I posted this question. Would like to work with the reliable only

I usually use icobench but it doesnt list all ICO so maybe you will miss some ICO. and the second is hacked. they rate ICO then you can choose a good ICO to join

I like icodrops.com

Personally I like ICOrating, but I wouldn't focus too much on ICO rating websites as most of them have a pay to play system.

I would do your own research and ask your own questions.

Personally I like Smith and Crown, but I think you should just focus on your own research and look into ICO's on a individual and through fashion.

I wouldn't invest into ICO's solely on what a rating website would say.

im using icobench or icodrops, because they give rate the upcoming icos. But unfortunately often in an superficial manner..

I like icodrops.com.  It's pretty easy to navigate and does a good job keeping track of how much is raised vs. how much they're asking for.

My fav is ICOrating, but honestly I wouldn't bother with these sites. I only use them to find some ICO's that maybe have slipped passed me.

A lot of these sites take money to give a good review, so very few of them give a good honest report. I would focus on doing your own research, rather than listening to what a website says.

icodrops.com according to me, they clearly mention which posts are sponsored & which are not

https://swissborg.com/en/

i like the concept of this ico and is will end in 5 days, try your luck

I wouldn't like to pick a favourite because I think you shouldn't base your choice on them.

99% are pay to play and so will only show ICO's that have paid them to say nice things about them.

I think a good ico listing site needs good design because the ico listing site's goal is to advertise

ICO rating is pretty good.

for watch an Best ICO I always using this website.

1. ICO Rating : I use this website for watch ICO who have a rate for Good Invest and Low Risk
2. TokenMarket.net : I use this for search an ICO upcoming and popular ICO
3. Coingecko : I use this website for search any Legit ICO who have a Big Sponsor

I know from personal experience that there are sites who want to get paid/bribed for a better review/rating. Which is TOTALLY bad.

So, I would vote for ICObench just because some experts mostly rate a project and set the overall rating. And it is totally open, you can see who voted what.

Personally I would keep away from it as I never use them to make a decision when it comes to investing ICO's.

Do you own research by asking questions on their thread.

Icorating is a good website to look into if you want to look at brief review about the upcoming ico but personally i like crush crypto for ico reviews , they don't have all upcoming icos review but they pick some and analyze it. I like their analysis and their opinions are often the same as mine so i trust them more if i don't have the time to read the whitepaper.

there are so many ICO RATING site. but don't always believe them. do research yourself. collect information about project and team via website and social media. think project is actually make in real world(i don't invest in A.I.  project ) 

Are all of the ICO rating websites paid to review ICOs? Or could someone point one which FOR SURE is independent and reliable in their assessments? Otherwise it's just a loss of time to read what is nothing but paid publicity.

I have always used ICO list https://icobench.com. It would be best to make your own conclusion on an ICO before investing as opposed to using free research firms.

Personally I like ICOrating, but honestly I wouldn't use them as the end all in your decision.

It is a lot better to research, ask questions and get involved in bounty campaigns than to just look on a website and see what they rated it as. Alot of these websites charge ICO's to put them on their website, so it is quite an biased statement.

Personally I like ICOrating, but I think you should be weary in using only rating sites to pick ICO's you want to invest into.

The best thing is to just look into ICO's on this page and find a project you think is great and profitable.

Icodrop, maybe you've heard of this site, and I often search for the latest ICO information on this site.

I like ICO rating.

I think their in depth analysis are the best on the market as of now.

I like ICOrating.com but honestly I only use it to see if I have missed any upcoming ICO's I don't take anything they say seriously as I am assuming to be on the website and have an analysis you have to pay.

ICODROPS is a good website.
Don't know about ICO rating and whether it's a good indicator, but their team is open and shares really valuable information. This website is developing fast.

I give credibility to www.icorating.com , the website do justice to an ICO before final rating, all the ICO I have involved myself are rated ICOs from the website.

i prefer ico drop

I use these websites to check for new ICOs:
https://icodrops.com/?s=
https: // www.coinhills.com/ico/search/
https://www.icoranker.com/?s=
https://icobazaar.com/v2/list/all?search=
I appreciate those sites because it gives you an overview of coin and some basic reviews for you to invest. But remember to carefully study the project you want to invest because the evaluation of these websites is for reference only.

I have created a topic answering exactly your question, along with my own personal statements to the in my opinion top 4 most reliable ICO Rating websites here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2913032.0l)

ICO List with Ratings: http://icomarks.com/

i dont trust  any one as basic concept is each of this site gets paid for posting +ve or -ve reviews .No luches come for free .  Most of them are paid to promote those ICOs and to get listed or review from them they usually request for payment or tokens or BTC or Ethereum

The best best ico site I've ever encountered is the Ico Policypal Network site. Of course Setiapi definitely ICO different ICO rating it and it all depends on the concept, team, and many more that affect it all. In order for ICO a rating project is very good like Policypal Network.

I agree, but with the help of these sites you can be aware of upcoming projects, so sometimes these sites are useful. I like icorating and icodrops.

https://www.smithandcrown.com/
They focus mainly on Tokens but also review standalone blockchain coins as well. Their reviews seem to be original and thorough and generally provide good information and links to help you figure out what the heck these things are. And if they are worthwhile.

http://icorating.com/
Lots of things here! Tabs for Future and Ongoing, as well as Past. The reviews aren't as thorough, looks like mostly just regurgitating the company lines. But it's nice seeing everything all in one place and you can burn an afternoon going through it all if you are so inclined.

https://www.coinschedule.com/
Their claim is that they "only list the projects worth following and investing". So if you are lazy and want to trust them, they have narrowed things down a bit.

This is what Steemit has recommended, I think this might help you.

if you just want to check all active icos and upcoming icos then any of site is ok ,
like icobench , icodrops , icorating , etc

but dont trust review and ratings there , heard many times that they got paid for ratings .

so always research before investment .

I like ICORating for their analytical evaluation. I always check risk rating. There I found IQeon with the low risk and high hype. Why "hype" is high, I don't know.

I don't think there is a single "best" one.

Depends on your requirements and needs. Though I'd recommend going to many sites to compare and contrast and then choose.

You can check the ratings of some ICO in icobench.com and there are so many other websites where you can check the ratings of ico's whether it is high or low rate.

We would like to show our website where we aggregate ICO rating from the top 6 rating agencies (Icobench, Icorating and others).
At the moment we have more than 700 ICOs listed with these ratings. We also give an arithmetic average of all the scores.

Link to the list of projects: https://icostock24.com/projects/

you can use our website https://www.coinmarketplus.com/

Do not use only ico rating like a reason for investing. Do not forget about posibillity of buying high rate. When i invest, i complete my own research. In my opinion, better web site with rating is icodrops.com. Sometimes i use ico bench

Actually, there's so many ICO websites that you can get an informations about what's the new ICO,, but here's my three favorite ICO website ( http://icobench.com ) and ( http://icolistview.com ) and of course the trusted scrow here in forum ( http://bl4nkcode.info )

Can you tell me about this ico rating website from your experience ?

https://ico-verifiedlist.com/

is this site legit and trusted ?

YOU can check these ICO's site I think it's will  help you:-

1. ListICO

2. The Tokener


3. ICO Alert

how can we list our coins to different websites simultaneously?

I rely on the data from icodrops.com; that's the site I really trust, and I rarely see there bad projects because it's hard to get in there.

I do not know if anybody mentioned it earlier, but icoindex.com is one of the sites I personally use.

i sure icodrops.com is the  BEST ICO RATING websites,because i invest many project from there ,most of them give me much profits.

When i research new project i use a lot of web-sites, because ico drops, ico bench sometimes has not information about new project whitch raised some days ago.
Here is my personal list of sites:
https://icobench.com/
https://icobazaar.com/
https://icorating.com/
https://icodrops.com/
https://icoholder.com/
https://www.trackico.io/
https://medium.com/
https://tokenmarket.net
https://tokentops.com/
https://www.coinschedule.com/
https://icoranker.com/

These days, the problem that we are faced with when it comes to new ICO’s is that the signal-to-noise ratio is ridiculous. Some initial coin offerings (ICOs) have a great website but their whitepaper and the overall business model are mostly fluff with no substance. Similar to the pre-2000 dot-coms, any business without a solid and viable business model will eventually get shaken out with a major market correction.

With crypto, ICO companies are using token purchases as a way to raise money. When considering investing in an ICO, using an accurate cryptocurrency ICO list is time effective and very critical. Cointelligence’s ICO ratings website includes, but is not limited to, data integrity, team identification, vision, product marketing and, social engagement, with each facet measured on an accurate and honest rating scale.

Check out Cointelligence’s ICO rating system in greater depth here: https://www.cointelligence.com/content/ico_list 

My recommendation to you in knowing the rating of the project you are going to follow is ICO Bench, I think this website meets the 3 criteria you mentioned

There is no really any best or good ICO rating sites.  All the ICO rating sites you listed above and other ones not mentioned above didn't base their rating on merits that's why it's happening you found ICO that is rated 8/10 failed and end up being shitcoin and the other reason why we cannot point to a ICO rating site as the best is because they charge prices to rate this ICOs so you just have to consult bunch of websites to gather information and make decisions

Their claim is that they "only list the projects worth following and investing". So if you are lazy and want to trust them, they have narrowed things down a bit.

In my opinion there are three the best ICO ratings: ICODrops, ICOrating and ICOBench.
These sources have 2.74M, 368K and 2.2M visits per month respectively.
All of them are designed good in both cases and with UX and with UI, what makes the work with it quite easy and confident.

I don't think there is a single "best" one.

Depends on your requirements and needs. Though I'd recommend going to many sites to compare and contrast and then choose.

My Top 3 favorite ICO rating sites :

1. Icobench.com
2. Icorating.com
3. Tokenmarket.net

It is really best sites. I like them.

most of the website ratings looks influenced. I prefer ICO spreadsheets to the websites but I still get some information from icobench and tokenmarket. icobench and tokenmarket make some other statistics that are general for ICO and cryptocurrency at large.

I really like ICO bench.  It has a filter where I can fetch a high rating ICO with bounty reward. In this case I can join in a high rated ICO with a higher chance of having a successful ICO crowdsale.

Other good ico review sites.

Hi Guys

I am still looking for participants.

My bachelor thesis is about Initial Coin Offerings - ICO. In particular, I would like to examine how ICOs and Altcoins are valued by investors.

Link to the Survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScDb_lPCnY9tjqa4T2QAFpnG7MfHM7iDHYQxBy1EYQdnppqsA/viewform?usp=sf_link

The survey takes about 10/15 minutes and is anonymous and confidential.

If you have some experience with cryptocurrencies i would like thank you in advance for your participation.

Regards
Beni

I like DCC, https://medium.com/@dcc.finance2018/stewie-zhu-on-dccs-plans-for-the-southeast-asian-market-7bf0e7bb3d69

I like ICO Bench I think they are the best because they have a lot of experts so they can vote for the projects. if you good expert your vote must be more poverful then new one. There are many of them. I like this one, I trust them

As long as you search for "immediate icos" on Google, you can find the ICO rating website, but I personally think that the content of the ICO rating website is only one of the reference conditions for my investment, and more importantly, I am deeply researching the ICO project that I am preparing to invest in.

All ratings are corrupt.!! It is easy to buy and sell everything! Any assessment can be bought!  It is better to try to learn to select projects!

Ico best rating websites are icorating.com and tokenmarket.net and icostats.com and icoalert.com all these websites have a good rating

I think maybe BTT is the best ico RATING website, people here are more objective and fair than any ico RATING websites, and those ico RATING websites may make some biased ratings.

I will add here http://icorating.us (http://icorating.us) that is free ico listing site and where ICOs are rated by community.
All you have to do is to own a crypto community behind your ICO project.

I trust the ICOdrops website, and I use their channel in telegram, there is a lot of useful information.

you should not overestimate the ICO rating site. because in my opinion their observations are not objective, and seem too excessive. many ico with high ratings but they are scams, from there we can conclude what the quality of the ICO rating site is at the moment.

Though I don't rely on ICO ratings sites to make my investments decisions but there is one out of them all that always rate solid projects. Am referring to ICO DROPS and am sure many people in this forum will agree with me that the platform is a credible platform.

now there is no guarantee about that, even those with a high rank can be a scam or fail. all because managed projects cannot be sure of investors. most of the current ICO is a failure. and only has a pump and dump mission. after that it will become obsolete crypto, so it becomes a dead project.

It's definitely the best ICO rating site at the moment. I searched all the ICOs I was interested in there, and there are a lot of details of each ICO. I have not seen any web pages that are clearer and more detailed than ICODROPS

there are some ico ratings that can be traded,
so be careful in every election ico.
there are many sites that display ico and its ranking, but you still have to do research and analysis to really make sure

I use sites icorating and icodrops. The first for general information, the second for more in-depth analysis, the creators of this site are engaged in investing in iso, and have good knowledge and experience. Also on the second site is not so much choice.

I would like to say that today many rating sites may in fact have very different ratings from the community. In general, I don’t like the way the whole rating system works today, because it can be compromised.

I have a number of sites that display almost all of the ico that have ended or are coming soon. this can be a research and comparison for me, for me ratings ico do not become a benchmark because it does not guarantee success in sales.

1) https://icodrops.com
2) https://icogoals.com
3) https://icorating.com
4) https://www.icoranker.com

maybe my opinion is a bit different, because every ico can register on the ico website, only by paying some eth to get good popularity, so I don't recommend trusting the ico website if you are an investor
