  I love this site. My chess has improved quite a bit and I'm this site all the time. I have gotten some great friends on here and have used the premium features quite extensively. This site relit my passion and love for chess and it is one of a very few reasons that I come online.

Chess.com is the best website for Chess!!

Avatar of pdela

"Chess.com is not just another chess site. No one else combines that many features to learn, have fun, socialize or just play...I tried many others sites, they are just far below, barely a 20-30% of which this one offers for a lower price"

Chess.com is one of the great romantic epics of our time. I have two children named Chess.com...

Despite abandoning chess for over two years, chess.com has allowed me to not only reach the level at which I once played at, but to exceed it. Thanks, chess.com.

i've taken the ones that make for the easiest "blurbs" and edited them a little for clarity and grammar: 

 

“I’ve loved chess all my life but never had enough time to get better. When I retired, I found Chess.com and in only 6 months have improved from 1200 to over 1600.” Dan Ajax - Ontario, Canada

 

“I spend most of my free time on Chess.com. I could never find enough people to play this much chess with over-the-board. I love playing people from all over the world!” Eddie - Chicago, USA

 

“Where else is it possible that a Dutch chess player get his game analysed by a chess player from Finland? At Chess.com it is!” Gert-Jan - Student, Netherlands

 

"After a decade of trying other chess sites and 20 years trying to improve my rating, I decided to give Chess.com a try. Since joining three years ago I've seen my rating from 130 ECF (1690 FIDE) to 175 ECF (2050 FIDE). With Live Chess, turn-based play, livechess, and lively forums, Chess.com is the best out there for me! I've found my chess home." Simon - Security Supervisor, England

 

"After trying many different chess sites, I found Chess.com to be the best run chess site out there. There is no better deal on the web - they have memberships to suit any budget." Mike - Computer Geek, Sacramento CA

 

"Chess.com is the best interactive chess site on the internet. They have great articles and videos to help everyone improve their game. Memberships are very a bargain for all the enjoyment you get from the site." Terry - UK

 

"Chess.com allows me to play against strong human players in a format that I can fit into my busy schedule." Eric - Software Executive, Orlando FL

 

"Chess.com is hands down the best site for learning chess that I have seen. Their team of veteran coaches and internationally renowned authors provide teaching material for players of all levels.The learning tools on the site are a great value for your money, giving you countless hours of video lessons and interactive courses for less than the price of two training DVDs." Steinar - Norway

 

"Chess.com is an excellent place for chess players who's can't make it to local chess clubs. Here we can play online tournaments and come together as an international community. We can play everyone from Grandmasters to beginners, and can share ideas and get better together!" Paco - Windward Chess Club Director / Coach

 

"I love Chess.com. I use the premium features quite extensively and my chess has improved a lot. This site reignited my love of chess!" Mark - Westwood, NJ

Helloooo, all my kids are named Chess.com, and you took all the quotes that sound rational? Unbelievable!

How could you pass up marketing gold like "wafflicious"??

If Erik doesn't include  "wafflicious" and "I named my kids chess.com," I have nothing nice to say about him or chess.com.Laughing Does he not know that marketing must be creative to be successful in today's world?

BTW I didn't even bother to read half of those mundane "I like chess.com because it helps me to become a better chess player and also improves my mental co-ordination in other areas of my life etc. etc.... blah blah blah"  type of posts. Don't get me wrong, there was nothing wrong with them and apparently they were just what the doctor (Erik) ordered. They are not the type of testimonial that catches my attention, however.
