Reviewstream.com Makes Making Money Easy

Get Paid for Reviewing Anything

Steve Helmer
A while back, when I was still doing paid-to-post sites in an effort to earn extra spending money, someone suggested I check out Reviewstream.com. It is now one of the places I spend a lot of time at.

The concept behind Reviewstream.com is simple. Write a review on anything, whether it's a product, a book, a movie or a celebrity and they will pay you for it.

Payments on Reviewstream.com aren't as high as other sites that pay you to write articles or reviews. The most I've ever received for an article there is $1.50 and, to get the full amount, it has to be something unique and include a lot of personalized details about how you use the product. It's so easy; I think anyone could do it regardless of writing ability.

However, the thing I like about Reviewstream.com is the fact that, if you select the "bulk rate" option, they will pay you a minimum of 30 cents for everything you submit, regardless of quality. The only requirement for that is it can't be plagiarized, and needs to be about 150 words long. They also ask that you be as specific as possible, such as saying where a particular business is located. You can also receive additional money for people reading your articles (currently cents per view) and the site offers a "self-editor" option for regular reviewers. This allows you to publish your articles immediately and receive a bulk rate of 20 cents per article. There are no limits on the number of reviews you're allowed to write each day and they are usually published and credited a couple of days after you write them.

And, when I say they will accept anything, I mean it. In the more than a year I've been writing on their site, I've only had two reviews rejected and both were published later after I made an easy change to them.

If there's anything I don't like about Reviewstream.com it's the high minimum payout. Unless you're using the self-editor program, which pays out at $20, you have to wait for your account to show $50 before you can request a payment and, at the bulk rate, that can take a while to earn.

However, I will admit that, once you do request the payment, they send it quickly (my last one was received a day after requesting it). Reviewstream.com has also made it easier to see your account balance. In the past, I would have to wait for an article to be published to see what my balance was. Now, I can just send a request and they will e-mail it to me right away.

If you're looking for an easy way to make some extra spending money, Reviewstream.com is a site you should visit.

    Thanks for this great review... I am about to post my first article and wanted to make sure the place was good.

    After having read a few comments elsewhere from people who thought they had bad experiences with ReveiwStream, it is refreshing to find a well-written article that gives them credit where it is due. My first review was accepted this morning, and I am delighted with them and although Associated Content will probably remain my first choice in places to submit product reviews, I can think of a zillion things I'd love to submit to ReviewStream and if they want to pay me, that is cool, too. I just love to write reviews!

    I usually review movies on it; which is easy now that we have digital cable and have tons of movies to choose from.

    Sounds like a nice place to pick up some extra cash if you enjoy writing about different things, maybe I will check it out.
