Hi, people!
Today I just wrote my very first review in reviewstream. It was about a music album - over 250 words long, describing the basic things about the product, including my own opinion and experience. I thing I wrote good review, actually. Now I'll have to wait maximum 3 days (72 hours) to see my review is accepted or rejected.
What do you know about reviewstream and what's your opinion about it? Feel free to share your experience with the site!
Thank you!!!

For your first couple of reviews, assuming you're doing in-demand products and whatnot, you'll receive $2 for most. The emails'll come pretty quick, informing you whether you made 40 cents or 2 bucks.
Regardless, your review will be accepted. So long as it's not plagiarized or pirated from another topic, you'll earn a minimum of 40 cents.
Good ones (electronics, software, etc) will earn 2 bucks up until your first payout. However, after you cash out your first time, reviewstream stops paying 2 bucks per review.
Instead, you'll be getting 40 cents for everything you do. But there's a plus side to this: you won't have to wait for approval anymore. Your reviews will be considered worthy of posting, and everything you write will automatically clear for 40 cents.
You can write about ANYTHING! You can write reviews about writing reviews. You can review myLot and every individual member, and so long as it's 200 words, you'll make 40 cents.
So, you'll need to write, what... 125 reviews for every 50 bucks?
lol That's A LOT of writing!
Read the discussion I started called "Hear me Out." You'll find some great ways to make money online.
Reviewstream is decent if you don't mind slaving over a keyboard all day, but there are easier ways. I'm not sure why I didn't get any responses to my discussion. I'm actually an online success story, clearing 40k annually by writing online.
Go figure.

You can get 2.50 after your first payout too, only you have to write more than 600 words. It depends on which cathegory you write in whether you get 2.50 or 50 cents, for books for example, you'll never got more than 50 cents so it's no point in writing very long. For others you'll get 2.50 if you write long enough, for example travel, electronics, computers etc. Probably also medicines.

I have never done anything on reviewstream. Do you get paid if your review is accepted? I can think of a lot of stuff I could do quick reviews of and getting paid for it would be great.

If you can find a great new electronic device out there or some cutting-edge software and actually write 300+ words of interesting and factual rhetoric, reviewstream will throw you 2 bucks.
If you want to quickly bang out a review about how matersfish always pretends to know everything, reviewstream will throw you 40 cents.
Now, the first, while paying more, is also going to take a lot of time. The latter, not nearly as critical, might take about 5 minutes. And you don't even have to spell check it or worry about grammar in general.
The average person, I'm assuming, can write about 10 junkers for 40 cents a pop in the time it takes them to write something classy in hopes of reviewstream giving them 2 bucks.
If you're writing solely to make money, then the 40 cent ones are the way to go. But, then again, if you're trying to make money writing, my "Hear me Out" discussion has the best way online, I think, and I'm not trying to sell anything.

Thank you both! I might try reviewstream. Matersfish, I can churn out a 300 word review in about fifteen minutes so that's $8 an hour if I can find enough things I know about. Not too shabby for an hour's work, if they are accepted. Thanks again, both of you!

This sounds interesting to me, but I am a little bit confused about this as well. Were some of the people saying that you always get accepted on the site, it is just a matter of how much they decide to pay you? Additionally, I also noticed that some of the other people said that this is a site that can be trusted and that is something that I always like to hear. What are the methods that tey pay by? Is it paypal or paper check?

As long as you're writing a review that's not plagiarized, meets or exceeds 200 words and isn't so horrifically formatted that it's not even readable, you're 99.999% to make at least 40 cents for whatever you turn in.
I reviewed individual songs and made 40 cents a pop. I just wrote some stuff like, "Dusty isn't the best song on Down on the Upside, but it's certainly a good track from Soundgarden. With this album, the songs are lighter and less Seattle-like; almost mainstream rock and roll..." etc.
The site is legitimate, but don't set your hopes on earning the $2 for every review. They don't like paying that much.

Well, you know even if I do have time to sit down and write 200 words a couple times a day for 40 cents a pop then I wouldn't be too likely to complain. Yeah, $.40 isn't a lot of money but right now every extra penny that I'm able to make does come in handy.
