Ok...I am confused with Ciao

It's a good site. You don't make money by posting a review, you earn money when other people rate you. In return, you should rate other people so they can make money. To get the most from Ciao, be sure to: -Write your own reviews, no Plagiarism! -Primarily focus on writing your own opinions, not a list of specs -Don't revenge rate, this can get you banned -Run your reviews through a spelling and grammar checker, this will result in higher ratings -Be patient, Ciao is not a place to make a quick buck. I have earned over $30 but it has taken a few months. I recently won the topic of the month, and got $10 for one review. Ciao rocks! (Despite the high levels of abuse that the site has suffered over the past 8 months)

As someone who's been on the Ciao UK site since 2002 and the US site since mid 2008 I hope I can answer your query correctly. Not ALL reviews earn you money on Ciao. If you write a product review you will receive money for each positive rating you receive, i.e. a H, VH or E rating. You do not get paid for negatives ratings, i.e. SH, NH or OT ratings. If you write a Ciao cafe review, such as "topics beginning with A" or "member advice on buying a car" you do not earn money for ratings, just community points. If you have a read of the Help Pages, it's all explained quite clearly - this page might give you more of an insight into payment terms over there: http://www.ciao.com/faq.php/Id/2/Idx/5/Idy/1 It is important to know that if you write the first review of a product (i.e. a review on a product that hasn't yet been reviewed) you will earn double the amount per rating for a month from the day you submitted the review. There have, though, been too many jokers on the site who have been hunting around for products without reviews and writing fake reviews on them, i.e. reviews which are copied or made up (I can tell very easily from reading a review if the author has actual personal experience of the product or is just making it up from looking it up on another website) and this sort of behaviour has led to Ciao recent drastic (but justified in my opinion) action of banning several countries from the site. Those from banned countries that are getting in through back doors are wasting their time, honest writers will eventually be let back in as far as I can see but if you get banned for abuse, you get banned for good. I hope you enjoy using Ciao and use it as it's meant to be used - that way you'll hopefully be a long term and valued member of the site :)

You can only earn money at Ciao if other members read your reviews. You only earn Community Points when you write reviews which in turns determines your Community Level. The point now here is you need to get a lot of friends (and build relationship with them as your readers)... read their reviews and probably someone will read your reviews and makes you money. The more reviews you have the more reads you'll get. Hope this helps!

Hi queenlove. I used to be a member at Ciao but now I can't open my account anymore because I came from Asian country which I heard Ciao stop accepting members from Asian countries. Ciao didn't pay per review now you can only earn from ratings you get. When you write reviews some members will read and will give ratings to your review examples of ratings are exceptional, very helpful, helpful, not helpful and out of topic. For every rate that your reviews will get you will earn between .01 to .03 cents. In order to get more reviews try to have more friends there rate their reviews and definitely they will rate back your reviews too. You will never waste time at Ciao because Ciao is very legit and trusted paying site. You just need to do your works and try to get more ratings to earn more. Good luck. Happy mylotting friend.

you can make money with CIAO,Give your rating for other member reviews,and get rating from them too,you'll earning dollars from doing it..keep try,be careful cause CIAO is very sensitive site..LOL

You simply don't make much money from ciao. You must make connection with other members to increase your viewings points. Otherwise, they won't pay you a penny. Don't waste your time on ciao, they won't pay you much money anyway.

I can't help you about that, because i still waiting my payment request from 23 April. Reading from TOS, this site play to member once in one month at second week, now is second week. Maybe, i will discuss with you again later. Hope, the paying me and off course you too. :)

ciao the correct play is confused,he said member to consider in indonesia,indonesia as the blacklist
