Does anyone here have any experience with Review stream?

I was turned on to this site by a mylotter and thought it sounded really great, and if I could get them to accept a review it would be wonderful. The problem is that I've written 4 reviews and they keep saying that thay are not valuable and won't submit them. Any advise as to what these people are looking for or as to why this keeps happening? I would greatly appreciate any help you have to offer. Thanks, Freedom

I don't know what are they looking for but one thing is for sure. If you want to have a chance in such a thing you must write something unique... something that will just hit them in the eyes and says "you won't find anywhere anything like me"

Dang that could be difficult when writing a review about something like cleaning products. Hehe.

I've submitted one review to them. They published it but sent me a note that I should tell them more about my personal experience with the product. I thought that was a silly comment because I told them about the product, why I bought it and how I use it. Can I get any more personal than that? After that I didn't bother to write any more for them. Maybe eventually I'll write enough just to get the money they owe me.

This is the standard answer that they give everyone for every single review, in the note that they send you to tell you that your review has been published. I've written over 50 reviews (maybe a lot more than this). I always write something (usually quite a lot) about my personal experience of the product, but even with the ones that that have been published and paid at the $2 rate, they have still included this standard message! They never include any other advice. I think this is just hard-coded into any confirmation message they send. It's bad that they owe you money. Is it much? I hope you can find some way of getting it back.

one main thing will be lenth.If it is too short(say less than 300 words)you may get the message.Next will be not specific.You should provide proper address.If it is left blank then there are possibility for not accepting.Third will be write for popular categories like electronics and try to write for the wanted categories to get the regular rate.

Hi, I submitted 2 reviews and both of my reviews are rejected. So, I don't use it anymore.

Like the person above said, if you make it a bit longer it will be accepted. Length is the only reason I've come across why they ever reject things.

I wrote two new reviews yesterday and made sure to add on some extra length. They didn't reject them but I haven't heard anything since the "We will get in touch" note they have after you submit. So I quess this means they kept it and are waiting to see how they want to use it. Yay! Thanks to everyone for the advice.

Hello! I write for review stream and got the same message a couple of times. You just have to add a few more sentences for it to get accepted. I think your review should have a minimum of 200 words. Goodluck...

Thank you very much for the advice. I really need to be able to make money and thought review stream looked like a good place to do that. I'll give it another try. Thanks again.
