Making extra income is hard and easy in the same time; this article will give you a clue about how to make extra money by reviewing products in the Internet.
There is many website out there that paying you for clicking banner or reading an e-mail, but many of these sites is not legit or fraud. Many complained that I have read that saying this site do not paid, and that site do not paid and the list just getting longer and longer.
I am one of the victims, but I learned from my mistake. After lurking around the net, I have found out there are website that will pay for doing a review of a products and it is legit. Without any hesitation, I registered to ciao.com and start doing my reviews there. Later on, I have come across website name Comparedby.us that also paid you for doing review with even higher incentive. Therefore, immediately I go there and register as member. When I write this article, I am an active member of both website.
Both site has a similarity, which is they paying you for reviewing. What make them different are how their value your reviews with each own unique way. Let get more detail.
Ciao.com
Ciao.com is one of the most popular Paid to Review website. This company is base in United State, and has setup European website in United Kingdom. Right at this moment, ciao.com do not pay for any reviews that has been posted but it will pay for the rating of designated reviews and pay you for reading the review before you give out your rating.
To earn money, you need to make a reviews of a product where each of you review need to be rated by other members. Your earning will be calculated using rating system where each rate represented a single value. Every product has its own rates remuneration that indicated by a dollar sign, which appear next to name of the product on the product overview page. These sign will not visible any other product information pages. Each symbols has its own value, where no sign shown mean non-remunerated products. One sign indicates 1 cent, two sign for 2 cents and three sign for 3 cents per rating. Rates remuneration of each product also relay on interest level of each product. Leave aside the calculation, since there is no details information regarding how ciao.com calculated each member earning.
Let us concentrate on how to earn some money. First after registering with ciao.com, what you need to do is to find a friend. There are two levels of friends, one common friend and other is Circle of Trust also known as COT. Common friend is a friend you just know, and COT is a trusted friend. COT limited only to 100 members, and there is no limit for common friend. Why you need friends? Friends are the members who will give you a rating that will effected how yours earning will be calculated. Rating system is base on mutual benefit, where you need to rate your friend and your friend will rate you back. If there some one that has not being your friend give you a good rating, immediately add this person to your friend and put a considerations to put into COT. Just remember, no dot have too many friends, since it will take out your time rating each off them. Remove any friend that had never rated you, it will be easier to manage. Post a new review once one or two days, and check all your COT and friend reviews and rate.
If you happened to know that there are new product released, do a reviews on that product immediately. As a person to do a first review, your earning will double for that particular review. Each high quality review will receive “extra rewards” called Premium Fund that worth up to $ 2.000 divided among the best authors.
Payouts occur once a month in the second weeks. Every account balance that has reach $5 will be able to request for payment. All of the payments will be via PayPal service.
Compareby.us
I have registered, and have become an active member. The rules had being change due to spam reviews that has bombarded the site. As new registered member, I have assign with Rookie title, which means I only could post 10 reviews each month. There is two more rank above me that able to post more reviews.
The compensation plan has being change, now every review that you post will be value as follow. A review contains more 1000 characters will be consider as extended review and will eligible for 1.0$, and if less than 1000 characters will be consider as quick review which eligible for 0.25$. First review reward and rate reward has been suspended.
Payment could be cash out once you have reach the minimum payment level which is $20 and the payment will be carry out every 16th and 20th day of every month.
Conclusion
Both website were legit to start for, and both website has its own unique earning scheme that will help you to earn extra money. The different is, ciao.com required you to have someone to rate you reviews before you earned some cash in other hand Comparedby.us required you to rate in order to increase your earning.
Why wait, go register and start earning.

Thanks. I hadn’t heard of either of these. I think I prefer compareby.us if you get paid for adding reviews. The rating swap model of ciao could suffer from quality problems if earning potential is simply based on getting a lot of friends to rate yours in return for you rating theirs. An interesting article though.
