If writing a review is a real hassle...try voting instead...they reward you $0.10 per vote. Anyone knows how do I sign up for an account?

They don't give you $0.10, they give the person you're voting for $0.10 or at least, that's what I got out of it anyways. SharedReviews supposedly pays you to vote though, =o I think upon writing your first review is when your account is made. I haven't been able to test it out yet though as i'm having writers block on there, lol.

Oh I see, so you vote to say how helpful the review was and you get .10cents for every vote? I could see that being quite good and help me get a good idea of how people write their reviews and such! Good thinking stiener!

Just had a little look couldn't find a 'sign up' link But before I delve deep - Does anyone want me to use their referal link? If it is of any use for them? dont know if you would get a % of anything for refering me but worth a shot?

No, they are not a scam site. Review Stream really paid. I have been paid $60 from them, they are 100% legit site. You will get $2 per review or $0.40 if you are paid the bulk rate. Bulk rate mean that they still accept your review but the quality is not up to their expectation. There are certain categories that you can write to increase your chances of getting the $2 regular rate. For example, cellphone or camera category. And sometimes you will also get instant approval for your review. I guess this will only happen after you have submit a number of reviews to the site. Normally your first approved review with them will give you $2. One more thing, don't try to copy content from the web as your account will be banned and you will lost all the money in your account.

Cashout is at $50 via PayPal. You got to send them an email when you have reached the amount. And they will pay you two to three days after that. I think it is best to use yahoo mail to registered as they also have an yahoo mail as their official email.

Thanks for the tip, Not that I would have copied and pasted content anyway, but it's always nice to be aware of things they clamp down on. What is the limit before you can withdraw the money? Thanks for the advice on the bulk rates and such. Cheers for the responce

Wow 72 hours to approve one review, But I guess if you are good enough and can keep writing when you start getting them aproved the all will start to flow. Did you find it hard to write a review on there? How long did you have to make it? Thanks for the responce

Actually it's so hard to make review there coz they are so strict in accepting reviews. I got few reviews that they rejected so i made it more interesting. Hope you have a luck in there. Cheers.

If you don't mind me asking, why were they rejected, - Was it about the subject? Not long enough etc? Cheers

Hello, yes you're right, sounds too much good to be true. Wish someone will answer your question, coz if they really pay, we all should go to write there, expecially now that ciao lowered their commission. Thanks to have started this discussion, i will check it again, wishing someone will say us something more. happy myLotting

Thanks for the responce, and the intrest in the thread also. Had you heard of reviewstream prior to now? I am pretty sure you have to write a minimum of words/characters per review to be eligable for the $2 but am just wondering if anyone knows of how much this might roughly be. And more importantly what the limit is that you can withdraw and if it is a kosher site Here's hopeing someone will reply
