Ciao claims to be the first uk website to reward users for there opinion. It may be the first, but it is the worst.

Ciao doesn't have the good cosmetic look that dooyoo.co.uk has. When writing a reports, you cannot seperate paragraphs with a line, so text looks like one big blob of hard to read info. You can't also edit messages once you have posted them. This can cause serious problems as their have been many times when I have made stupid typing errors. The basic site site design is the same.

dooyoo.co.uk is a very friendly service unlike ciao. I have recieved emails for dooyoo.co.uk staff thanking me, or asking to improve my opinions. Their is good relationship between the users and subject moderaters. This personal touch alone enhances dooyoo.co.uk by miles.

When it comes to the money factor, ciao offer £1 for joining, while dooyoo offer no suck offer. you get 50p for each opinion and 10p every time someone reads your review. It seems that dooyoo offers more money for posting reviews, but I don't really care as the difference is only a few pence. Ciao have also place a limit of £100 on payouts. As far as I can tell, dooyoo have not placed such restrictions.

In my opinon, dooyoo.co.uk is a much better website than ciao.
