Advantages: More money for everyone
Disadvantages: Less money for the bosses
I have just realised that I have now written over 120 reviews on this site, given that I stumbled across it by accident whilst looking into holiday accomodation I'm quite impressed that it must be doing someting right as a site to have kept me coming back for more and contributing to the site.
I guess the rewards must have something to do with it. All those reads do add up after a while and the 3p's come in useful. Once I get to the £15 limit I usually cash them in for Amazon vouchers as order of this amount from Amazon qualify for the free delivery however you can cash in once you reach the 10,000 mile point which I'm pretty close to at the moment. I have never tried to get to the 55,000 or 100,000 mile point to be able to claim cash, partly because to get £50 I would lose an additional 5000 miles as a processing fee and also because it would take too long to get there, in fact I reckon the bulk of my tiume on the site so far would have been spent just getting to that level to get £100.
One thing that has helped is the first review draw which I won last month and that gives you an extra 2,500 miles however as for crowns and the extra 1,500 miles well they are something I have heard about but not seen for any of my reviews and it does seem to be a fairly regular group of good quality writers who get these. Then agian they mostly but not always tend to write quite long reviews which is not my style.
I do find the site a useful place to find out about peoples opinions of games and the occasional book and even the odd trip however one downside of the site is the search engine which is pretty poor and does let the site down.
Apart from this navigating around the site is pretty easy and now that I'm on broadband the download times are pretty quick. The home page and the new reviews link are the easiest to use to find new reviews or for other links around the site.
Rating and commenting on peoples reviews is a big part of the site and whilst most people are pretty genuine with this there are a few people who seem to rate in response to your own rates and if you rate their review SU or NU then they will do the same to yours whether you deserve this or not, the only good thing about this is that you do earn 30 miles (3p) whatever the rate they give you as Dooyoo pay on reads so teir petty revenge actually earns you money.
The site has a lot to offer and is a nice hobby to have that does earn a few pennies towards those xmas presents at this time of year so if you are a non member don't be shy and give it a go and if you are a member then thanks for the read. :)
By the way one tip is to write a decent title to sucker people into reading your review. Did it work on you?
