As a writer, I’m always looking for additional ways to gain exposure for my work and every so often an opportunity comes along I instinctively know is going to be a great one. Such is the brand new opportunity that Shared Reviews, a product review site, is offering to its members.
Just recently announced, this opportunity will be going into full launch in January and members on the site are clamoring to have a piece of the pie. I’ve been a member of Shared Reviews since it opened its Beta doors in October of 2007 and I can honestly say that the community that this site has grown into is one of the best there is on the Internet today.
Although the Shared Reviews area of the site – where members write reviews and vote on others to gain high standings in the community, has had a bit of a struggle over the past few months – you’d never really know it by the way in which the community has banded together to really bring Shared Reviews together. During the month of September a few things happened that resulted in the shared revenue status the site was offering going on “hiatus” until things could be caught up. By all indications this is going well and revenue sharing is expected to come back on line again in the New Year.
A new opportunity which has members quite excited is the “Bounty” opportunity (as described on the Shared Reviews Blog). The guys at Shared Reviews have been working day and night literally to get the new Bounty program up and running, complete with a new site for it and personally I think this is going to be a great success. With some of the highest payments in the ‘article writing’ venue, Shared Reviews is getting set to not only provide writers with a great way to keep busy with writing but also a great way to earn some additional cash!
If you are interested in becoming an active part of the Bounty program – simply head to Shared Reviews and sign up as a member for their Reviews portion of things and once you’ve done that and have some reviews on-line to help the guys gage your writing style – you can sign up for the Bounty program as well.
You have to put together a resume and some writing samples – but that’s just a simple matter of posting to the Bounty sign up site. I encourage anyone signing up to first have some reviews completed on the original site as this is going to be a win-win situation for the writers who want to get “two birds” with one stone.
Does Shared Reviews actually pay?
As mentioned, I’ve been a member here for several months and yes, they do pay – right now however the Review portion of the site is on temporary Hiatus (no pay status) but that doesn’t stop the members from really writing up a storm – new reviews are added hourly by the members and once the site begins its revenue program again in the New Year – payments will again be a part of the program – I’ve received payment from Shared Reviews and the Bounty program promises to be a payment cycle of the 15th of the month following the month you’ve written articles in…eg if you write articles in Jan you’ll have payment for them by about the 15th of the following month (Feb).
The payment process is through PayPal and signing up to the site (both Shared Reviews and the Bounty) are quick and simple to do.
The guys are fabulous and the community is terrific…so quick, check it out and then sign up because those who get in on the ground floor will have an excellent opportunity!!
