Get Paid to Write Reviews!

Unlike Surveys and other forms of money making on the Internet; the vast majority of "paid to reiew" websites are legitimate, and there are very few. Ciao! is one of them. Here’s how the business model works: Members write the reviews which draw customers to the site from google. The customers read the reviews and decide to purchase the product and use Ciao!’s price comparison site to choose a store. Ciao! is then paid commission by the store and so Ciao! pays the users who write the reviews.

So how do you get paid? Well Ciao! has a rating system in place whereby other Ciao users can rate each others reviews. And for each ‘good, excellent or outstanding’ rating you are given; you earn either $0.5, $1 or $2 depending on how popular the product is. You can also double your earnings if you are the first user to write a review for the product. This encourages the users to review every product listed.

This clicking culture creates social circles called "circles of trust" whereby users are notified when one of their trustees posts a new review, so those who are trusted by many get a good minimum level of clicks every time they write.

There is also a monthly cash amount which is divided up every month and given arbitrarily to writers who have written exceptional reviews in the month. I was awarded $10 from this fund after I’d written about 20 reviews. To register for this great money making product just click here.
