Product Review Exchange

Getting feedback on a new product is vital, but getting those early Eyeballs can be difficult. Why is Eyeballs capitalized? Whoknows.

  • Projects to be reviewed can be listed with simple text instructions. Basic requirements (iOS, Android, Windows, etc) will be specified to allow filtering by users.
  • Points system. When you review something the review is sent to the author for review
    • The site owner awards points based on the helpfulness of the review. 0 is spam, 10 is pivotal advice that is thorough and well explained.
  • If you post a site to review you "pay" for reviews with points.
    • Each review costs 5 points as long as you award the reviewer more than a 0.
    • Now we have a problem of people marking useful advice as spam, but lets ignore that...
    • Users who have a lot of points will get their projects listed most prominently for review.

Not perfect, but I think there's a nice market for it. Eventual monetization could be done by allowing comissioned reviews from well rated reviewers. IE, fund a campaign for 1000 reviews at $0.50 each.
