Or you're doing it for money?!
For me, I'm doing both. I'm really putting my all on products I'm having a review on. I'm writing my experience and all of that. Yeah.
But I see other reviews, and they do like 120+ words(doesn't even reach 200) with simple terms that doesn't even help other in deciding whether they want to buy a product or not...Well that's my opinion. Anyways they earn a dollar for that. Yeah I know, you might say I'm bitter and stuff like that, but the truth is that Ciao is created for consumers to read about a product based on our(Ciao members) opinions and experience using those products. And that $1 is just a limited time offer as they say so in the site, so if they remove that what will happen? Will you still write your reviews? Will you try to create a very good review for that matter?
So are you doing Ciao reviews for money, or with concern for the consumers as well?
I admit mine is not written with a good format, but still I try to describe the game with my full knowledge of the product, even if it is just games that I review most of the time.
Have a nice day.

I will try to do my best for giving good reviews and getting paid a bit more, and not getting banned. But it will be hard for me since i am too lazy, and im spanish so it is a bit harder but ill do my best anyways.

You can do it, you just need to focus a little bit more. I'm Filipino and I'm known as the great bum(meaning I'm very lazy). Have a nice day. What's your username in Ciao?

In ciao mostly for members is money driven which is not but at all, if you can give a discription whether short or long but with it somebody can actually make a decision based on your experience, it is still ok. What I really think should not happened is whereby you write a misleading review about products for the sake of earning money. But for me whether short or long solong as it is based on your experience it doesn't bother. Remember for the product you are writing review about are attached with $$$ which whether you give long or short you are going to earn that scent so long as it meets the required standard. In ciao there is also the element of level and community points which gives somebody bonus in earning, so the more you participate the more your community becomes more level you rise

Yeah I agree, as long as it doesn't mislead the customer. But then what about those reviews that is so short it qualifies for a standard review(and it earns a dollar) but doesn't justify the experience at all?
Ciao's standard is to just make it over 120 words. No other thing as well. And then community points are gained by inviting friends and then rating each other helpful.
Well, if you say it's about the money...I guess it really is it.
