    Hi,

    It's profitable. I have a site and it is only a demo but did you know that I got a sale. Wow, maybe it's a matter of motivating people to buy...it's called pre-sales. Here's the site to get you an info of how I did it --> http://www.ReviewsScript.com/demo2 ... What do you think is the cause of the buyer why he buy from my link? Is it because of the good review or the presentation of the review?

    Regards,

    Ross

    Clever buyers look for reviews first, before buying anything.

    If they find a review that looks professional, and analyzes good and bad points of a product or service, then they will probably buy the product from that review site.

    The review has to be honest and clear, without anything like: WOW, THAT'S THE BEST SOFTWARE EVER

    Maybe that was true..no hype for an honest review will make sales. Does anyone of you have similar site? Can you tell me your success? Thanks!

    I think having an open comment box would help with conversions. because personally im more convinced about a product if i see lots of people talking about how good it is.. Im not talking about testimonials, but a comment box where anybody can say what they think.

    I have a review site too. Right now I only have 5 products being reviewed. I got one sale yesterday without doing any promotion.

    The site is barely 6 months and it is getting about 5 uniques a day through SEO.

    I am presently hunting for a review script or software so that I can expand my website. A review site seems more objective and buyers do search for products reviews before buying, its just natural.

    I do a site with reviews, not only reviews though. I write about the niche and add maybe one review a week (niche blog). It brings in a sale every other day on average. Good for free and nice bonus to PPC.

    Hi,

    I use smarty templating here and I am not a designer. Pardon my design... :)
    I will say it is a public awareness .. sharing something that is really good :)
    If there is a designer here that want to design me a template then I will gladly give him a copy so that it will not look blocky and professional. Thanks for the review because it helps.

    Regards,

    Ross

    Conversions are typically better on a review site than direct linking because if you have multiple products, you are giving the user a choice for them to decide what is best.

    You are completely correct. Let them do the decision. No hype..just an honest review.

    The products that are on my review site are closely related to each other and I think that is the key to having a good review site, review 4 or more products and slightly put more emphasis to your favourite or the one with the highest commission.

    Yeah, you are right..I choose the one that attract me more and give high ratings while the others are not good enough but honest review. If you really want to target the niche you will buy the product and make a review on it or else ask the one who already bought the product..check out their experience on the product..ask in the forum and then summarize it. Thanks for the heads up.

    Hey guys,

    Come check this out!

    Get user reviews on your review site. They are the best type of reviews for new buyers in any market. People look for other people that have bought the product or service they are seeking for their honest opinions. User review sites give that to them.

    Do it by setting your site up with a WordPress blog, then using the free Review Site plugin (see WP's list of plugins) you can have a site like this: Award Winning Hosts (not my site). It actually has a Google PR of 4. And your visitors help to build the unique content on the site. Plus it gets pinged and indexed everytime a new post/page is added, edited or comments appear. The free Review Site Plugin is available here: http://www.dangrossman.info/wp-dg-review-site

    I'm doing this for a Australian Biking Trail website I'm currently building now. But will also use this technique for my CPA/Affiliate offers too. ;)

    HTH :cool:

    Agent 007 thanks for wp plugin link..

    but the template there sucks Award Winning Hosts and the review rating images sucks badly..

    i really admire your goodself for posting the plugin link.. may be we can change the theme easily and see if it looks any better.. wordpress is easy to modify theme or add a new one..

    rossdalangin your script is very good.. i checked it out..

    but if it was built with CSS and had themes features ,, it would be more a complete solution and i would just spend my credit card right away.. i dont want to hire graphic designer for every theme site i will make.. i prefer to do it easily modifying theme or css n header image

    offtopic..

    can anyone say if its allowed to put adsense on clickbank review site..

    Yes it is a template based. Most are just fill in the blanks. There is an existing template and you'll just need to change the header, color combination and it is very flexible.

    You want to see the Manual --> http://www.reviewsscript.com/ReviewsScriptManual.pdf

    Actually I just copy and paste the screens of the admin so you'll see what's inside and what you can do with it. I'm not a good designer but a good coder :) My plan is to build templates based on it soon. I'll hire a designer to do that. You can use CSS for sure. I use different templates for header, footer, review listings and article listings. So it's up to the customers to change what they want.

    I think adsense can be used for review sites because it was content and nothing wrong with porn and scam. Unless you review a scam or porn sites :) All products can be reviewed so there is no way you can think of a review niche.

    BTW, thanks for the post. I really appreciate your thoughts.

    Regards,

    Ross
