[edit] History

ResellerRatings was launched in 1996 as a subsection of SysOpt.com (sysopt.com/resellerratings, at that time). Its founder sold SysOpt.com and ResellerRatings.com to EarthWeb in 1999 for several million dollars. EarthWeb went defunct and sold all of its properties (except Dice.com) to Internet.com in 2001. Then in 2002, Internet.com shut ResellerRatings.com down, and the founder of ResellerRatings.com bought the site back from Internet.com [2].
