I am now a ReviewStream reviewer!
After waiting for three long days after I submitted my review, it is at last published today! However, it was priced at a bulk rate, that is, the review rate divided by 5.::Sad::
When I first discovered ReviewStream, I thought it would be easier to make money there. The current rate is $2.00 per review, and the minimum payout is $50.00. Imagine, if you can make 2 reviews a day, in 13 days you will reach payout of a whooping 50 bucks! And you can review absolutely anything! But now I only earn $0.40 for my first review. At that rate, I would reach payout five time longer, that is in 65 days.
Is anyone here also write reviews for Review Stream? Do your reviews get the full rate or just the bulk rate? Any tips on how I can achieve the full rate?
By the way, reviews also earn from votes. So I would really appreciate it if you would vote for my review.

And if you have reviews there, I would be happy to vote for them too. All of us want to earn, right?I also have the link in my profile page.

I submitted some reviews to Review Stream but I lost interest and motivation after getting bulk rate for all the reviews I sent in. I can understand why now. Paid2write says that you have a better chance of getting full rate if I write on certain types of reviews. I have been publishing mostly book reviews. I may resume Review Stream one day though.

I have looked through the list but there doesn't seem to be any I could comment on. May try to take a look at the list again, thanks for reminding me. If not, I will take forever to reach payout!

In their homepage they have this list:
- The most wanted reviews requested by readers are :
electronics travel and related hotels medicine
Special requests :
Local Businesses
Auto loan
Golf clubs
Hotels
I think if someone would make reviews in this categories
that would make the full rate.
Otherwise, it would take a lot of reviews before we reach the
minimum payout.

Don't give up. I suggest you should always check the bulk rate option so that if they don't like the topic that you are reviewing, you will still be paid but on a lower rate, that is, the current rate divided by five.
However, if you are talking about receiving the message that says "your review is not valuable" after you have submitted it, it only means that the number of words in your review doesn't meet the minimum. It has happened to me once, and I just add more words to my review and was able to successfully submit it.
Try it again.

Congratulations for that! I put my reviews too on reviewstream and I have always been paid through bulk rate too. I think that submitting more quality reviews improve your chances of earning more even though it is only through bulk rate.

No, you earn the moment Review Stream published your review. You
will receive a notification email when it has been published and
it is indicated in there how much they pay you for it.
Of course you have to have a paypal account.
It's pretty easy but you will have to wait 3 days before you know
that your review is published and at how much.
PM me when your review is already published so I can vote for it.
You earn for every vote you receive. This earning is separate
for the earning you receive the first time it is published.
However, you only can cash out your earnings from votes after your
review reach 50 votes individually. So it would really take a lot
of marketing too.
Have a nice day!

So you give reviews on anything under the sun? I tried to check out the site last night and I was a bit confused about the site. To tell you honestly, I was supposed to make a review of a movie last night, but unfortunately I fell asleep. If your review gets good rating is that the time when you earn?

It seems like it's much more harder than it's supposed to be.. What's bulk rate?? ANd if it depends on votes to determine how much u will get paid for, i think one has to be very good in making reviews and must take it seriously..

Yes, I think it will be harder that I thought to reach the minimum payout. As paid2write said, it is hard to get the full rate of $2.00 a review. They want something that they need.
Bulk rate is the full rate divided by 5. In this case, it is $0.40.
No, it doesn't really depends on votes. The votes are only a "sideline" earning. It is not included in the computation of the payout. Voting earnings have its own minimum payout which is $5.00. So I have to have 50 votes for my review to reach payout.
So I really would appreciate you voting.

I am a long way off reaching payout at ReviewsStream and I have not written for the site for a long time.
Some of my reviews were paid at the full rate but many of them were paid bulk rate.
It seems you only get full rate in some categories like health, travel and electronics. Others like books and DVDs will only every be paid at bulk rate.
I should write more so I can get paid, but I prefer writing for SharedReviews.com where I get paid a share of their revenue every month.

I recommend you to read the forum to find out more about how it works. I have only published 9 reviews so far and I have a share score of 81%. The higher the score the more votes you get in each section and each vote you make earns a share of revenue. The more reviews you write and the more you vote the higher your score will be.
I earned $23.89 from April and May and I am still waiting to see how much I earned in June. I was paid for April at the end of June and I will be paid for May later this month.

NOTHING CAN BE MADE IN A SHORT TIME, more effort have to be done went you want to achieve the great price. Be more patient and always believe that "there nothing impossible that you can't achieve" if you keep remember this word then you are one step closer to your gold.
