I just joined reviewstream last week and I wrote 5 reviews. It takes 72 hours to hear back from them and for the site to tell you how much you will be paid, they either pay you at bulk rate or the normal rate. I think they pay bulk rate when they have alot of articles on that topic or it does not match all of their criteria. Anyway I was happy to hear back from them, I was notified that my review about anti aging cream earnt the normal rate of $2. My other 2 articles were paid the bulk rate of 40 cents for my reviews on Mylot and Bux.to. I love it, I only wrote a couple of paragraphs for each review. Still waiting to find out what my other 2 articles were paid, should find out tomorrow.You put alot of your personal opinion in them and say what you like or don't like about places, events, products etc. Also you need to earn $50 before payout, unfortunately, they pay by paypal. I don't mind waiting for payout, if I get busy it won't take too long.
What are your experiences with reviewstream? Have you been paid by them?

I have never heard of reviewstream but it does sound interesting, I bet they get bombarded through you now, lets hope this one does not crash through so much interest LOL.
I do not know if I am any good at reviews never really done it and to be honest I do not try a lot of products so if I had to do it on things I knew about then I am stuck. I could make it up, and research it, good at that! Hopefully it will be a good little earner for you xx

Lol, hope it doesn't get overloaded too. But the good news is informativepost is also back, I feel better now.
I haven't got back to writing your email yet. But it is really easy writing reviews you can even write about Mars Bars, lol. All you do is write what you like about the product or place or event. They want more opinion then description. Say you went to dinner and you did not like the service you then write about it. IT is like you are talking to me about something you saw or went to. I will send you a couple of examples that I did via email. You will be good at it, for sure. Anything you can think about you can write a review on, I even wrote about advantages and disadvantages of being a teacher, Home and Away, Mylot, Anti aging cream and BUx.to. Let me know if you decide to join, keen to read your reviews.

I really like Reviewstream, I've been writing there for about a month and have so far earned $24. It sounds as if they are a trustworthy site from what lots of people on here say. My only gripe with them is that I've sent them a few comments and questions about the site and they haven't got back to me at all.
I'm glad that you're happy with the site, I am too overall. I enjoy reviewing things, and I like the fact that you can review just about anything there.

$24 that is good amount, can you tell me, have you had many reviews paid at the $2 rate or higher. I only have one out of 4 paid at this rate so far. Which is okay, I hope to get more at the $2 rate. That is not good how they have not got back to you. The good thing is I have read a few people have had good payouts from them. Some people here at mylot have been paid 3 times by them that motivates me. It gets me motivated hearing other peoples success stories. Keep me updated on your success with reviewstream.

Thanks, it's not bad, considering I don't have enough time to do loads of reviews each day. I've been mainly paid at the $0.4 rate; I've just had a quick count-up and so far I've had fifteen paid @ $0.4 and nine @ $2. I think your results seem pretty good too.
I can more or less guess before-hand which ones will get $2 as they tend to be ones in the categories listed as 'most wanted reviews requested by readers', or in the special requests section. (All on the left-hand side of the home-page). But I'd find it difficult to constantly come up with products from these sections. A lot of my reviews are for popular products for which they probably already have lots of revies, or for local, British products that a lot of readers might not have access to. So I think that most of mine will probably continue to be paid at the $0.4 rate, which is ok as long as I have some $2 ones as well to speed things up a bit!
Yes, the fact that so many people have been paid by Reviewstream motivates me too . I hope you get lots more $2 reviews. I'll let you know how I do, keep me up to date with how you're doing as well!

9 reviews paid out the $2 rate that is awesome and 15 at 40 cents, not bad at all. I got more reviews published now I have two paid at the $2 rate and 6 at the 40 cents. Which I am pretty pleased with. I think you are right, about you can pretty much tell which ones will be paid the $2 rate. I also think it helps to write more in your review they seem to be paid at the higher rate. The reviews that got paid at the $2 rate of mine were about Jenny Craig weight loss program and Anti Agind cream Exlir, these are pretty popular things that people like to know about I think. Keep me updated, have a great day, send me PM anytime.

Pl. do not worry, it will come to your pocket one fine day. I have not written any other article on that site. I write occasionally, due to paucity of time. Whenever, I get time, I will post a article.
Meanwhile, you please carry on with your good show and keep on increasing your ratings. Best of Luck!

The 50 dollar payout is what turns me off. At .40 an article that is a lot of writing. You are suppose to earn more if people vote on your stuff. I had a few that got votes, never got anything for them. If you have the time to write all those reviews I guess it is good. personally I would rather put them on AC, helium or something like that. Good job with the earnings though.

Hi I find this site better then Helium, it pays better. I have only earnt $12 in a year with Helium for 26 articles. I don't think $50 will take too long, if you get a few paid at the $2 mark. So far 1 out of 3 reviews published of mine earnt the $2. Might take a couple of months but it will be worth it. Congrats on your votes that is awesome.

I read somewhere that the minimum payout for the votes is $5, meaning that if you've just got a few votes (worth $0.10 cents each) then you've got a while to payout. (I might be wrong about this, but this is how I understood it. If I'm wrong, please correct me!)

Hi kiran,
it is nice that you found this site. I hav e written about review stream a few times on this site. A couple times providing payment proofs from them. I have earned $110USD from them in two months and feel I can earn more if I had more time to put into it. I am working on my third earnings from them this month. I wrote a lot of reviews at $2USd, luckily! I get bulk rate most of the time but it is good and they paid me within an hour each time I requested payout as well. That is very reliable, but I have heard others say it can take a couple hours and stuff to receive the money but for a big amount it's really fast payment!
Nice site and good luck!

Wow that is awesome maybe we can check each others reviews out and earn ourselves some extra money for votes. What is your name on there I will do search for your reviews and vote for you. Mine is kiran1978 same as mylot one. That is good amount that you have been paid, and to be paid so quickly now you have me motivated. Think I will have a late night tonight, writing reviews. Thanks for all your information. Happy reviewing look forward to reading your reviews.

a $50 minimum sounds bit too far away. but still it is alright if one just makes a review to pass time, not to make a living out of this. by the way, is there a maximum number of posts that you can make in a day? or are you allowed to post an unlimited number of reviews and then just wait which ones will be approved? :)
thank you for the information. i would be glad to try the site you recommended.

You can make unlimited review in a day that is the beauty. I thought it was quite good paying considering we get paid 1-2 cents per post here, on reviewstream atleast you can get paid 40 cents per review or even $2. Plus you get paid 10 cents for every vote someone gives you on your review. I wouldn't say use this as your main source of income but think of it as extra pocket cash. I only write around 2-3 paragraphs so it does not take too long to do. It is like chatting to someone about what you like, lol. I will send you the link for you to check it out if you are interested.
