Hello MyLotters! As you may have heard, Ciao.com will be closed so I am looking for another paid to review website. Which Piad to Review is the best in your opinion? I will gladly be your referral if I will decide to sign up. Thanks in advance.

Hi zhorak I too used to be on Ciao and the first month I had joined when they were still paying $1.00 per review, plus page views, and $1.00 bonus for first time reviews I did great there money wise, bu then of course the quality of that site really went downhill after awhile. What I did when I learned ciao was shutting down, was to copy all my reviews then resubmit them to associated content for page views only (previously published work can't have upfront payments) Be wary of Reviewstream....I've heard a lot of negative things about them such as some of my friends writing great reviews and as they neared payout suddenly RS decided the reviews weren't good and canceled their account..minimum payout BTW is $50.00 I write a lot of articles for Associated Content which seems to be the only consistent writing site around...however, non-USA writers I think can only also submit work as page views---would have to see the TOS to verify this though. I've belonged to SharedReviews for a long time and haven't gotten paid a cent, same with comparedbyus...seems like they are scams

Thank you very much for the information. This is what I wanted. I had only a few reviews on Ciao. I think they aren't worth copying just for page impressions. I will look for something simplier and maybe less paying. Thanks for your warnings. I will keep in mind that they may be scam. Your explanations helped me a lot. Happy myLotting

Thanks for your response and help. I will try them but looks like it will take some time to try all of them :) Could you select one for me to try first?

First of all Ciao.com isn't closing, just because they have joined Bing and will only be paying people in the US-doesn't mean they are closing. However, I will keep my eye out for other sites like it for my fellow mylotters.

Thanks for your response. Yes you're right it isn't closing but it means closing for international members :) Happy Mylotting

Ciao actually was closing and HAS! Initially it closed to International members and within a couple iof weeks closed out completely as it was bought out by Microsoft and became "Bing.com" which, sadly, offered no review opportunities to us. In the few months since the sites closing, I have found NOTHING that ompares, and the couple that DID pay, are no longer offering incentives "due to the current economy" (in one case). I too am still looking for a home and found Reviewstream.com as a similar paying site - however, they turned out to be rude, unprofessional and would find any reason not to pay! Avoid them! I am currently at Epinions under the name "Scotlass" It doesn't pay well but it pays somewhat based on revenue share and number of views - NOTHING like Ciao, but Idoubt there will be anything like that any time soon - if there is LET ME KNOW:-)
