No it isn't. It's a rationality site... which actually puts it at odds with skepticism when it comes to approach and some major conclusions. It is that same rationality which mandates that even if people on the site go ahead and evangelism atheism on the side they do so while acknowledging that most people would be better off getting off the pulpit and living their lives.
How so ? The site promotes (one might say, "evangelizes") rational thinking, especially the Bayes Rule, and evidence-based reasoning in general. These are the core values of skepticism; disbelief in fairies/UFOs/gods/etc. is merely a consequence.
