My site isn't up yet, but I would use this service, and be willing to pay for it as well. If you are an expert in this domain, maybe you could have a cheap automated testing suite, and then offer a consulting service to help fix the security issues.

Nice! Yeah, consulting stuff makes sense as an add-on down the road.

Email me (see my profile) and I'll give you free scans when I launch if you'd like.

Main problem with security is trust.

How can one trust the security app which is offered as a service and believe that it will not do anything malicious? It is like storing my bank password and all credit card details in another thirdparty site. As a user I do not trust any thirdparty service which offers to store passwords. Similarly as a developer I do not trust any third party service over web for websecurity testing.
